The total length of the broad gauge connecting track of the First Grain Railway Terminal will be 3,343 m. It will be used to deliver and reload grain crops from 1,520 mm Russian gauge cars to 1,435 mm gauge cars for subsequent shipment to China.
This will solve the technical problem of exporting Russian grain to China. The shortest grain supply route will provide through transit of wagons to China from the agricultural regions of Siberia and the Trans-Baikal Territory, which will help Russian grain successfully compete with products from the United States and Canada in the Chinese market.
The volume of private investments in the implementation of the investment project will amount to 9.5 billion rubles. 324 jobs will be created - 100 more than originally planned.
