Direct container train Ukraine-China, if there is demand from customers, will be able to transport up to 64 containers instead of the current 41-43.
Alexander Polishchuk, deputy head of the Ukrzaliznytsia branch, Liski Transport Service Center, told the CFTS about this..
" So far 42-43 containers are being collected, but this is temporary. Customers in Ukraine still do not know everything about this service. China is also working on attracting customers and connecting new provinces..
I think there will be a full load further, "
Polishchuk also informed that now transportation by container train is being transferred to a regular basis, and, starting in October, one train will arrive at the Kiev-Liski station from the Celestial Empire per week..
As for export traffic, work with shippers in this direction is also underway.. " It would be interesting for us in terms of tariff and service, as well as good for the country's image.. We hope that export cargos will start in autumn, "
