摘　　要：尽管陆路交通在过去两年中增长迅速，但是中欧线上通过铁路运输的集装箱仅占每周总货量的2％，和记黄埔港口执行董事兼费力克斯托港CEO郑伟明认为，陆运的运力限制和高成本意味着海运货量不会受到大影响。Container ships carry more than 250,000 TEU weekly between Asia and Europe, while just 4,000 TEU move by rail from China. Even with the enormous growth in volume on the overland route over the past two years, containers traveling by rail on the ChinaEurope route still comprise less than 2 percent of the weekly total, said Clemence Cheng, executive director of Hutchison Ports and CEO of the port of Felixstowe. He said capacity limitations on the overland route and the higher costs meant there would be little effect on the volume moving by sea. The number of weekly eastbound ocean services has increased from fewer than 10 several years ago to more than 50 today, connecting eight Chinese terminals with six in Europe. The number of westbound services from Europe also soared to 23. The Chinese government wants to double the number of annual trains to 5,000 by 2020, a plan that is starting to look realistic. Despite that kind of growth, rail will not have much of an effect on ocean shipping, according to Harry Theochari, Norton Rose Fulbright's head of global transport. The dismissal of rail as a threat is something the industry has become accustomed to, so it was with some surprise that delegates at a Hamburg conference last year greeted a comment by a Maersk Line executive that promoted the rail alternative for China-Europe shipments. Integrating various parts of the supply chain is an area traditionally handled by forwarders, and if Maersk Group were to become more involved in rail services, it would be through its Damco forwarding division.
