Western Railroad Discussion > Maersk-MSC Alliance EndingDate: 05/08/24 00:21 Maersk-MSC Alliance Ending Author: lew_an Maersk and MSC are ending their alliance at the end of this year and it had me wondering what effects it may have on railroads?

JB Date: 05/08/24 15:13 Re: Maersk-MSC Alliance Ending Author: lew_an Figured it could be as simple as this. So we’ll return to solid trains of Maersk and MSC rather than having them mixed together on trains.

And OCEAN Alliance (CMA CGM, Cosco Shipping, Evergreen and OOCL) announced in February this year a 5-year extension to that patnership. MSC will be the only stand-alone.
