The Baltic-Adriatic Corridor (RFC5) includes eight EU Member States and represents the central European north-south railway axis connecting ports and inland freight terminals in Poland (Swinoujscie, Szczecin, Gdynia and Gdansk), Italy (Trieste, Venice and Ravenna), Hungary, Croatia and Slovenia (Port of Koper) with important industrial centres and land terminals in Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Austria, Italy and Slovenia (Wroclaw, Katowice, Ostrava, Žilina, Bratislava, Vienna, Graz, Maribor, Ljubljana, Budapest, Zagreb and Bologna). RFC5 establishes a rail link that removes barriers both between industrialised Northern Europe and Southern Europe, as well as between countries that do not have a direct connection to the sea.

RFC5 takes place on the route Swinoujscie/Gdynia–Ostrava/Žilina–Bratislava/Vienna–Klagenfurt–Venice–Trieste/Bologna/Ravenna/Graz–Ljubljana–Koper/Trieste, with additional branches extending through Croatia and Hungary.

RFC5 comprises approximately 5200 km of railway lines, 84 terminals and eight ports.
