To Vorsino station (Moscow junction) On April 11, the first experimental train arrived from the Chinese city of Hsinchu. The composition of 50 * 40 foot containers with auto parts covered a distance of almost 6 thousand km through the territory of China, Kazakhstan and Russia in 7 days. After the test transportation, Eurotrans Group LLP carries out this route on a regular weekly basis.
According to Aitbek Adilet, Deputy General Director for Operations of Eurotrans Group LLP, the train passed through the border crossings Khorgos (China) – Altynkol (Kazakhstan)-Seven-headed mar (Russia). The container train proceeded along the new route according to the schedule without delay.
According to the company's top manager, the new "corridor" through Kazakhstan will be a good alternative to the existing routes through Mongolia and the Russian Federation. In addition, it guarantees Chinese shippers stable delivery times of up to 7 days.
