RZD Logistics along with its subsidiary company Far East Land Bridge (FELB) and in partnership with TransContainer has started to send transit container trains through Naushki border point (Mongolia) twice as often, the number of train sets being increased by two in a week.
The trains start in Changsha (China) and go through the territory of Mongolia, Russia, Belarus and Poland to Hamburg (Germany). The average travel time from the departure station to the destination station is 14 days with the route length being 10,390 km. Container trains have a standard length of 57 conditional cars.
This way of forwarding showed that the transit service across Mongolia is beneficial pricewise and in relation to delivery time, being competitive in comparison to railway routes through different border points and to cargo delivery by other transport modes in general. RZD Logistics and FELB provide logistic support for the service, while rolling stock and containers are provided by TransContainer.
