Types of cargo transportation from China to Russia
Meanwhile there are two types of cargo transportation:
- Combined transportation by sea + by railway, when the cargo from China is delivered to Vladivostok by sea, then it is transshipped to the cargo train and carried to the destination city in Russia. This variant is longer as a rule but at a more favorable price.
- And direct railway transportation, when cargo is loaded to the cargo train at the station of origin in China and is carried to Russia without transshipment. Such variant of cargo delivery is usually faster but more expensive.
