Prefix
ELEU
Owner or operator
Thales Rail Signalling Solutions GmbH

The four-letter prefix ELEU appears at the start of ISO container identification numbers and is associated with Thales Rail Signalling Solutions GmbH.

A complete container number combines the owner prefix, six-digit serial number, and check digit. The prefix identifies registered equipment ownership and does not always identify the carrier currently transporting the container.

Use the CargoEnter container validator to check the number structure before starting shipment tracking.

ELEU container number format

A container number starting with ELEU has the four-letter prefix, a six-digit serial number, and one check digit, for example ELEU1234567.

Who uses ELEU containers

ELEU is registered to Thales Rail Signalling Solutions GmbH. Leased or exchanged equipment can move with a different shipping line, so the prefix alone does not identify the carrier of a shipment.
