Types of Wagons
Covered Wagons
Safe transportation of various loads with full protection
Equipped with fixed walls, a roof, and sliding side doors, covered wagons are used to transport various types of cargo. Loading is typically done manually or using forklifts.
Open-Top / Gondola Wagons
Suitable for transporting bulk and non-sensitive cargo
In railway terminology, gondola wagons are open-top wagons used for low-volume bulk materials. Open-top wagons come in different types, including high-sided, low-sided, and deep-floor designs for container transport. High-sided wagons are primarily used for low-volume bulk goods such as coal that do not require protection from adverse weather conditions.
Platform Wagons
The ideal solution for heavy, bulky loads
Platforms are freight wagons without permanent walls or a roof. They are used for transporting heavy and oversized cargo and are also suitable for carrying containers.
