The pilot project involves the formation of the block train to China in cooperation with Chinese company Sinotrans, “RZD”, “RZD Logistics” and “Transcontainer”.

Delivery time from Vorsino station to Guangdong in the south of Chine will be 10-12 days. Deliver to the station Shilun (Guangdong Province) as well as to the port of Dalian, from where on the feeder ships will be forwarded to other ports products will.
“This project was developed by the Russian Export Center to solve two problems – the high cost of logistics and the length of the delivery of cargos to China. Consolidated container block trains will allow exporters: firstly, rationally distribute financial resources, secondly, reduce the delivery time to 14 days (delivery of cargos by sea in this direction takes about 45 days), and thirdly, pass customs, phytosanitary and other procedures immediately upon sending from the Vorsino terminal”,- noted Petr Fradkov, Head of group of a company’s REC.
Estimated cost of delivery for a universal forty-foot container to Dalian is $2600, reefer – from $4500 depending on the quantities of ordered containers in the bond. Sending a universal forty-foot container to Shilun will cost $ 3200 per container.
This route is expected become very popular among exporters, so in time the quantity of container block trains will increase. “The project, which we talked about today, changes the concept of export – consolidation in one place, sending by accelerated container block trains. There is a demand for a container block train of a new format, there are exporters. We hope, that service will be regular and frequency will be 2 train per week”, – commented the CEO of Freight Village Kaluga North LLC Nikolay Kruchinin.
Petr Fradkov, in turn, noted that the signing of the agreement with Freight Village Vorsino, one of the most modern transport and logistics centers in Russia, will be a step towards creating optimal conditions for the rapid delivery of products abroad, which is now the most important task in the sphere of export support.
