WHAT IS RAIL FREIGHT?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Rail freight is the carriage of cargo and people by wagons moving on metal rails. This type of transport offers a very effective and economical solution, especially for moving large and heavy cargo over long distances.<\/span><\/p>\n

WHAT CARGO IS CARRIED BY RAIL?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Industrial products are among the most frequently transported and most important goods. Heavy and bulky industrial products such as metals like steel, iron and aluminium, machine parts, automotive parts and construction materials are frequently carried by rail. Agricultural products come next: grains such as wheat, corn and barley, oilseeds and sugar beet are carried by rail, especially from production regions to consumption centres. Energy resources such as coal and petroleum products are also carried by rail, as they need to be transported in large quantities over long distances. Chemical products, forestry products, cars and military vehicles are carried by rail to their destinations and to ports. Containers are also transported: standard-sized containers holding various products are carried by rail, allowing different types of cargo to be consolidated in a single vehicle.<\/span><\/p>\n
