Naushki Sukhbaatar Russian federation, “Russian railways” JSC Mongolia, ”Ulaanbaatar railway” JSC Gauge: 1,520 mm

Mongolian-Russian border crossing points characteristics

✓ Same track gauge, no transshipment; ✓ Locomotives are served one by one between border stations every year; ✓ 13 pair trains per day, maximum permitted weight of trains: 6000 tons, maximum length of the train: 71 wagons; ✓ Dynamic weight controlling on both sides; ✓ Russian wagon are permitted to enter the Mongolian border, but Mongolian only the named wagons permitted to enter the Russian border due to the number system differences.

Technological time of train receiving procedure:

  • at the Sukhbaatar station is 2 hours and 55 minutes /175 minutes/ and
  • at the Naushki station is 3 hours and 55 minutes /235 minutes/, which takes longer for 1 hour.

Mongolian railway has transit potential for 800-1000 container block trains.

  • III. OPERATIONAL PRACTICE ALONG INTERNATIONAL CORRIDOR

In 2016: From CHINA to EUROPE 1702 container trains, approximately 136000 TEU travelled.

AGREEMENTS ON TRANSIT BY RAIL THE PEOPLE’S REPUBLIC OF CHINA

  • Intergovernmental agreement on the access to and

from the sea and transit transportation through Chinese territory by Mongolia, 2014 – instead of 1991;

  • General Intergovernmental Agreement on Developing

Cooperation in Railway Transit Transportation, 2014 (to be adopted) RUSSIAN FEDERATION:

  • Intergovernmental agreement on the access to and

from the sea and transit transportation through Russian Federation territory by Mongolia, 1992;

  • Intergovernmental agreement on the condition for the

transit transportation of goods, 2017 (agreed the draft

  • V. FACILITATION MEASURES AT RAILWAY BORDER CROSSINGS

RUSSIA to CHINA CHINA to RUSSIA

  • 1. Technological time:
  • Train receiving procedure time at Zamiin-Ude

station was 420 minutes:

  • Mongolia introduced parallel technology system:

train receiving procedure time reduced by 173 minutes (248 minutes).

  • 2. Fast processing of container trains:
  • Excluded the locomotive changing procedure for

whole travel;

  • Technical maintenance technology is reduced at

technical station from 60-70 minutes to 30-40 minutes.

Reducing the travel time: freight transportation 850-950 km per day.

Russia to China: 28 hours, became 27% faster China to Russia: 31 hours, became 26% faster

  • 3. Simplification: Exchange information between railway stakeholders

In 2016, signed contract between railway authorities for exchange electronic documents: 13512 documents received, 9640 documents sent. Phase I: Beginning stage of paperless procedure for railway transportation: Consignment notes and Transfer lists are exchanged fully Electronic version since May 2017 /IFTMIN, IFTSUM/. E-sign will be available between Railways, thanks to which all documents will be acceptable without collating with paper documents. Phase II:

  • 1. Lack of available wagons for reloading both on Zamiin-Ude and

Erlian stations.

  • 2. Lack of cooperation between internal and external stakeholders:

Electronic information exchange between railways and control authorities.

  • 3. Long time taken for freight trains to cross the railway border

crossing at the Erlian/Zamiin-Ude.

  • 4. Lengthy transshipment operations, limited reloading/receiving

capacities.

  • 5. Capacity building improvement.
