container train transportation in india
we conduct container train transportation in the territories connected to the three major western indian ports of nhava sheva, pipavav and mundra to the northern indian area around delhi, where many production bases are located. the long distance from each of these ports to the outskirts of delhi is on average 1,300 km. for cargo that requires routine and bulk transport, container train transportation has a huge advantage over trailer transportation.

endeavoring to visualize services
we formed a partnership with icd*1, operators that hold an important position in logistics in india. we have established a container train transportation company (cto*2) as a joint venture. by controlling these key points in rail transport, we can visualize our service details. this enables us to better understand actual operational details, starting with scheduling and fee structures. we are endeavoring to clarify india’s complex and opaque distribution rules and fee structures and to prevent problems with delayed deliveries and damaged or lost cargo.
- icd: inland container depot. a special facility authorized by the indian government. all maritime container cargo that has used rail transport must pass through the icd. here we carry out cargo delivery as well as various other operations such as import/export customs clearance, container storage, and loading/unloading.
- cto: container train operators who use trains to conduct cargo transportation at each of the icds scattered around major ports and inland areas. this is a relatively new business opened to the private sector in 2006, and there are many cases of icd operators also launching their own cto business.
