Slow trains to west irk Ford Romania chief

Ford Romania s chief reckons she can ride a bike faster than the trains that transport cars from the factory. Freight trains which carry cars from the Ford plant in Craiova, southern Romania, to western Europe frequently need about 26 hours to travel the 400km (250 miles) to Romania s western border with Hungary. Then, they spend another nine hours on border control because Romania is not part of Schengen. This generates high costs for the carmaker, romaniainsider.com reported . The average speed (of trains) is 15-20 km/h which is slower than I can go by bike. And I m no Olympic athlete, I don t pedal very fast, but I can overtake this train. Certainly, this is a problem for us, Ford Romania president Josephine Payne told local TV station PRO TV.
