When a company needs to ship goods by rail, they follow the (simplified) steps below:
- Determine the type of cargo and the destination.
- Work with a freight railroad company to schedule a train and determine the necessary logistics.
- Load the cargo onto rail cars, which are then connected to a train.
- The cargo is then transported to the final destination.
The entire process is carefully coordinated to ensure that the freight arrives at its destination on time and in good condition.
