Rail transportation is an important part of the transport system in Ukraine and Europe. Cargo transportation by train ensures cost-effective and safe transportation of products, structures, and raw materials of various types over long distances.

Features of rail transportation

The railway network of Ukraine unites over 20 thousand km. It connects the main administrative, industrial, and agricultural regions with ports. Railway lines lead to international transport corridors. Also, in Europe, railway networks are well integrated, and high-speed lines allow for fast transportation of goods by train from Ukraine to the EU and back. And during a full-scale war, when air travel ceased, and delivery by road takes a lot of time due to downtime at the border, the popularity of rail transportation increased significantly.

There is one feature that is important for organizers to consider when transporting cargo from Ukraine to the EU. This is the difference in the width of the railway track. In Ukraine, it is wider, which creates the need for reloading or changing wheel pairs at the border. This slightly increases the time and cost of rail freight delivery. However, the benefits are still obvious.

Even despite this, rail transportation remains an important element of the transport system, and its development is key to economic growth and Ukraine’s integration into Europe.

Advantages of rail transportation in Ukraine

Rail transport is the most reliable and efficient way to transport a wide variety of goods. In Ukraine, railways are an important part of the logistics system, ensuring reliability, cost-effectiveness and stability of transportation.

Economic efficiency

Rail transportation is considered one of the most cost-effective types of transport, especially when it comes to large volumes of raw materials and products. Rail transportation in Ukraine is cheaper than transporting the same batch by car, which attracts business. Experienced rail carriers operate in Ukraine, who know this segment well and offer a turnkey service. High competition among operators leads to tariff optimization and improved quality of services. 

Reliability and stability

Transportation by rail does not depend on weather conditions, time of year and day, traffic jams and a number of other external factors, which makes it more planned and reliable. Railway corridors provide uninterrupted communication between stations in Ukraine and the European Union. Clear train schedules allow you to control and predict the movement of goods, which speeds up and simplifies logistics processes.

Transportation safety

International and domestic rail transportation is the safest. There is a lower probability of accidents. Strict safety standards introduced in Ukraine and the European Union reduce the risk of incidents.

High throughput

The capabilities of rail transportation allow you to deliver large consignments of goods in one trip. This makes them indispensable for industry, agriculture and trade. Timber, equipment, production lines, coal, metal, agricultural products, and other bulk cargo are transported by rail.

Integration with other modes of transport

Modern logistics solutions include multimodal transportation. Rail transport plays an important role in them. Intermodal terminals have been built in Ukraine and Europe, allowing for quick switching between rail, sea and road transportation.

Organization of rail transportation

Organization of cargo transportation by rail includes several stages that ensure timely and safe delivery.

Planning and conclusion of a contract

The carrier determines the type and volume of cargo, the route and delivery time. The choice of suitable rolling stock depends on this. These can be covered wagons, platforms, tanks, etc. Rail container transportation of cargo is also common.

Coordination of transportation conditions with the shipper

At the next stage, the contract price is calculated, a contract for cargo transportation by rail is concluded with the customer.

Preparation of cargo for shipment

If necessary, the carrier carries out packaging and marking in accordance with regulations, fixing on pallets, and customs clearance for international transportation.

The accompanying documents are issued – waybill, certificates, invoices, etc.

Loading and execution of shipping documents

At the appointed time, the carrier organizes the delivery of the wagon to the departure station. Loading operations are carried out, the carrier controls the correct placement and fastening of the cargo. At the same time, a railway bill of lading is issued, the necessary inspections are organized (veterinary, phytosanitary, etc.).

Cargo movement and transportation control

The carrier monitors the location of the cargo using a tracking system. For perishable goods, additional control over temperature compliance is carried out.

Unloading and transfer of cargo to the recipient

At the destination station, the carrier organizes unloading operations taking into account safety precautions. The company checks the safety of the cargo and signs acceptance certificates. It also organizes the delivery of cargo from the station to the final destination by road.
