Container wagons to extend fleet
VTG Rail Russia is buying another 250 container wagons from Transmash. The first batch is to be delivered before the end of 2021, the other wagons by early 2022. VTG Rail Russia's fleet already includes 439 of the manufacturer's wagons, including pocket wagons, which are a novelty for the Russian market.
The newly ordered container wagons have a load capacity of up to 73 t and are suitable for the shipment of tank containers with a tare weight of 36 t. Lashing devices and additional fastening options on the frame secure the containers centrally. The wagons are designed for a service life of around 32 years.(ben)
