Large-capacity transport

Large-capacity transport

This is a high-capacity rail transport service that utilizes 31-foot containers, which have roughly the same internal volume as a 10-ton truck.

This system enables a modal shift from long-distance truck transport to rail transport without requiring any changes to existing inbound and outbound systems.

Characteristics of high-capacity transport

  • Loading capacity equivalent to a 10-ton truck

    Loading capacity equivalent to a 10-ton truck

    A 31-foot container can accommodate 16 pallets measuring 1,100mm x 1,100mm. Since the same loading and unloading methods as for truck transport can be used, the transition to modal shift is smooth.

  • Cost reduction for long-distance transportation

    Cost reduction for long-distance transportation

    Switching to rail transport for medium- and long-distance trunk line transportation reduces transportation costs compared to truck transport. Since it's a one-way fare system, there's no need to worry about return cargo.

  • CO2 emissions are approximately 1/11th of those of a truck.

    CO2 emissions are approximately 1/11th of those of a truck.

    Rail freight transport has the lowest CO2 emissions of all transport modes. It can transport the equivalent of 65 large trucks at once, significantly reducing environmental impact and addressing the driver shortage simultaneously.
