The Wanne-Herner Eisenbahn und Hafen GmbH (''literal:'' "Wanne and Herne railway and port company Ltd."〔The city of Herne and the Wanne a tributary of the Ruhr〕) (abbr. WHE) is a railway and canal port operating company based around the Rhine-Herne Canal in the Ruhr area of Germany ==History and background==
The port's history begins in the first decade of the 20th century with the building of the Rhine-Herne Canal. On the 14th of July 1905 the company ''Kanalhafen Wanne-Gelsenkirchen-Land'' is born, with the aim of making a coal port for the surrounding mines on the canal. In 1913 the nearby town of Herne also participates in the project and the companies name is changed to ''Hafenbetriebsgesellschaft Herne-Wanne mbH''〔(Hafen Wanne-West ) Wanne west harbour ''route-industrielkultur.de''〕 The west harbour opened in 1914 and, a year later a narrow gauge railway ''Wanne-Gelsenkirchen-Land'' connected it to the mine Shamrock 3/4 nearby. Not long after other rail connections were made to the mines ''Carolinenglück'' in Bochum und ''Teutoburgia'' in Herne. Rapid growth of freight transport ensued with the million ton mark reached in 1916. The ''Bochumer Krupp-Zechen'' and ''Hibernia AG'' mines were connected by the port railway in the 1920s.〔 Originally there was a basin on the western side as part of the port, for boat manoeuvering, but this was filled in in the 1990s and now is the site of a logistics centre.
