The "Mostyska" container terminal (Container Terminal Mostyska, CTM), which also houses a grain terminal, is equipped with pump stations for handling bulk liquids such as sunflower and soybean oil. This information was reported by CTM, as cited by the CTS.
"The terminal is equipped with modern and highly productive pump stations, which allow the transshipment of large volumes of bulk liquids from trucks to railway tanks and from railway tanks for the 1520 mm gauge to tanks for the 1435 mm gauge," – the company said.
It was also noted that the track length at the terminal allows for loading an entire train at once, which speeds up the process and enables the transshipment of a pair of trains in a single shift. The transfer of cargo from a Ukrainian to a Polish train is completed within 12 hours.
The "Mostyska" container terminal was launched last summer, "Lemtrans" and "Rail Trans Investment" acted as project investors, while N'UNIT and "Levada Cargo" were partners in the development of the container business.
As part of this project, a grain terminal was also constructed. The storage capacity for simultaneous storage is over 4,000 tons of grain.
The elevator has the capability to receive grains such as corn, rapeseed, wheat, etc., from cargo trucks, grain wagons, and half wagons, and further load them directly into European gauge (1435 mm) wagons. Unloading is possible into grain wagons, half wagons, and grain container wagons. In addition to the direct transshipment, the elevator provides grain processing services and laboratory services that meet all modern requirements.
Certified railway scales for both 1435 mm and 1520 mm gauges are used to control the weight of goods arriving at and departing from the terminal. Additionally, all goods arriving by road transport are individually weighed on modern certified truck scales.
The total track length of the entire terminal (including the container terminal) allows for the reception of a maximum of 8 trains: 4 trains of the 1520 mm gauge standard and 4 trains of the European standard 1435 mm gauge. Private locomotives are used to handle them, which can travel to the station.
