Russian railway transit: Russia's cross-border railways are important transportation channels connecting Russia with neighboring countries and other regions in Europe and Asia. They play an important role in promoting regional trade, facilitating people-to-people exchanges, and promoting economic development. At present, there are a total of 11 international railway trunk lines in Russia connected with countries such as Finland, Lithuania, Ukraine, Belarus, Azerbaijan, Mongolia, China, and North Korea, including: the October Railway, the North Caucasus Railway, the Moscow Railway, the Volga River Basin Railway, the Trans-Siberian Railway, and the Baikal-Amur Mainline.
In the first quarter of 2024, the cross-border railway transportation of goods between China and Russia reached a historical high of 42.5 million tons. This not only shows the strong carrying capacity of the railway transportation systems of the two countries but also reflects the growing trade demand between the two countries.
