Additionally, the possibility of cargo transshipment between trucks and railcars is envisaged.

One of the terminal’s features is its ability to unload railcars on five 1520 mm gauge tracks at a rate of 1000 tons per hour, as well as load European gauge railcars with a similar capacity.

Loading bins are equipped with load cells, allowing for precise control of cargo weight during railcar loading,” noted Bogdan Poperechnyi, director of the design organization “AktivProekt.”
