RUSSIA's Global Container Service Group (GCS), of Rostov on the Don, has begun taking delivery of 224 railway flatcars ordered from Moscow-based Transmashholding's Engels plant.
The flatcars are to be used on block trains operated by GCS intermodal subsidiary Ruscon, which moves 150 000 TEU a year on routes from the Black Sea port of Novorossiysk to European Russia, reports London's International Railway Gazette.
Traffic includes automotive components for factories in the Elabuga special economic zone operated by Ford, Isuzu, Voith Turbo, Saint-Gobain, Rockwool, Air Liquide and PD FibreGlass. GCS said it also plans to increase its fleet of long-term leased flatcars to more than 450 units.
