Abstract

The article is devoted to the organization of transportation of container trains. The main elements of the transportation process and the main types of shipments are considered. Export railway deliveries from Russia to China began to develop relatively recently. China is actively purchasing Russian wood and wood materials, thereby raising the economic sector of the Russian Federation. The focus on the development of international rail transport is because with respect to other types of transport the railway is the most competitive. Transportation of large-sized various goods in large-capacity containers has a great prospect, both in the transport services sector and in foreign economic activity. Increasing such transportation means targeting the modernization of old rolling stock and the creation of new improved units to improve the efficiency and quality of cargo container traffic, as well as to reduce costs and shorten the delivery time for goods. To optimize both transit cargo and passenger, as well as import and export traffic, it is necessary to improve the border crossing procedure. Clearly, this issue requires discussion at the state and international levels, as well as the enormous costs of developing activities and the elimination of difficulties and time resources for the whole complex of procedures.
