A total of 68 wagons with building materials were sent. In addition to the direct transportation of the cargo, the services of "RZD Logistics" included the provision of rolling stock, the development and coordination of the loading sketch, the securing of the cargo in the wagon, as well as loading and unloading operations at the railway station Kupchinskaya.
