Italian term or phrase: collegamento ferroviario camion TIR su vagone
European Parliament speech about Turkey's prospective accession to the EU:

Plaudo perciò ai notevoli progressi sul fronte dell'impulso ai collegamenti tra l'Unione europea e la Turchia, in particolare a quelli attraverso le autostrade del mare che attraversano il Nord Adriatico e il Nord Tirreno, su cui si muove oramai un flusso superiore ai 250 000 TIR annui nelle due direzioni, in connessione a un importante **collegamento ferroviario camion TIR su vagone** da porto a destinazione interna europea. In tal modo si è potuto eliminare un cospicuo transito del resto di camion su strada e auspico che si continui su quella via.

neutral  Fabrizio Zambuto: TIR is not a freight and transportation company, it's the acronym of 'transports internationaux routiers' but it Italy it just means 'truck' (erroneusly but that's the way it is:)
