About 60% of RAIL1520 rolling stock fleet is formed of units with improved technical and economic characteristics, equipped with the Barber bogies. Car increased load capacity, reduced costs for empty run and enhanced distance run between overhauls, allow decreasing the transportation cost per 1 ton of load and service maintenance costs of wagons, reducing the required fleet and optimizing its turnover. A wide network of more than 30 service centers and spare part depots provides the maintenance of wagons.
