Freight Yard
A freight yard is a designated area where goods and cargo are loaded, unloaded, and stored. It typically consists of multiple tracks, warehouses, and loading docks, facilitating the movement of freight trains and trucks. Freight yards play a crucial role in the transportation network, connecting various modes of transport, such as rail and road.
In a freight yard, cargo is organized for efficient distribution to its final destination. This may involve sorting containers, transferring goods between vehicles, and managing inventory. Efficient operations in a freight yard help reduce delays and ensure timely delivery of products to businesses and consumers.
