Dostyk， Altynkol container congestion

 The latest operating data released by Russian Railways RZD recently showed that RZD's freight capacity suffered a heavy blow in 2024. More than 93% of the decline in freight volume is due to a shortage of trains. A large number of locomotives are out of service. This has led to serious congestion on the Moscow line, with more than 50 trains being dropped from various routes.

  In addition, the lack of locomotives at the Kazakhstan-Russian borders has led to a lack of trains at the Alashankou and Horgos ports. Only two trains can be sent from Dostyk and Altynkol each day. The following figure is the relevant document notification.

  Current congestion:

Dostyk: about 2,900 containers, with an average reload time of 12-16 days

Altynkol: about 6,500 containers, with an average reload time of 14-18 days

Thus, dear clients, if your goods are in a hurry, it is recommended that you choose other modes of transportation besides rail transportation. To avoid waiting for reload at the border for a long time. We will continue to follow up on the latest situation for you.
