RZD to Design Freight High-Speed Train

OAO RZD is working at a concept of a freight high-speed train, the PRIME quotes OAO RZD First Vice President Alexander Misharin. The trains would operate at up to 300 km/h.

The freight train is to haul 300 - 600 ton trains. Design-wise it is to be “similar to a passenger high-speed train”, OAO RZD noted.
