English term

block train

English to Romanian Bus/Financial Transport / Transportation / Shipping
Inseamna ca trenul respectiv are in vagoane doar bunurile tale, nu si ale altei firme


In addition, both CFR Marfa and GFR provide single-wagon services to a limited number of customers (i.e. single-wagon trains are assembled in a marshalling yard in the region of origin, transported to a marshalling yard in the region of destination and disassembled into single-wagon loads for transport to their final destination). Single-wagon services represent less than 10% of the rail freight market in Romania and demand is rapidly decreasing in favour of road transportation. In addition, other operators (usually offering block train services) occasionally attach single wagons to block trains on specified routes. It is considered that these “other” operators could, if there was enough demand, enter this segment of the market rapidly (inside 12 months) and with relative ease.
