Product Description

Since the 2024 logistics problem emerged, rail freight transport has been attracting attention as a solution to long-distance and mass transportation.
Freight trains connect major cities across the country, but they transport a variety of goods.
In this magazine, we cover Tsuchiura Station, which is medium-sized but has a high volume of traffic due to its location.
We will introduce what is done at E&S freight stations, which improve the efficiency of loading and unloading.
This paper also focuses on the things that freight trains carry.
We cover the DOWA ecosystem, which uses rail for round-trip transportation of urban mines.
We will also introduce block trains, where a single operator charters out the entire train, colorful containers that are fun to look at and have a great advertising effect at stations, and explain the various types of containers.
As a special supplement, a pamphlet created by Nippon Sharyo Seizo Co., Ltd., the manufacturer of the heavy-duty car Shiki 600, which was completed in 1960 and was delivered, will be included as a bound-in supplement.
