Due to capacity limitations during the modernization of the infrastructure
by JSC 'NC' KTZh on the Dostyk – Moyinty section since 2023, the use
of open-top wagons in the company’s container service has been successfully tested
and implemented on the main routes between China-Russia and China-Belarus, with container transshipment at the Sorokovaya station.
In addition to the terminal at Sorokovaya station, a second terminal
at Nur-Sultan-1 station has been regularly utilized for transshipment
of container trains since June 2024.
