全球铁路货运市场-增长,趋势和预测(2019-2024年)
The increase in road congestion, due to the growing population, and lower emissions from rail transportation, when compared to that of trucks, are leading to the shift of freight transport from roads to railways. For instance, the fuel efficiency of rail transport is three to six times better than that of trucks. The movement of freight through rail produces almost 30%-70% lesser emissions than that of heavy goods vehicle (HGV). Moreover, the transport of goods through rail is economical over the road, as they can be transported over long distance and a large amount of freight can be carried at the same time.
