Congestion of 2,000 tank wagons with fuel at Beloye More railway station

Jan 24, 2009 Port


Almost 2,000 tank wagons with fuel have accumulated at Murmansk and Petrozavodsk branches of Oktyabrskaya railway because of a breakdown of a boiler plant at Belomorskaya tank farm, Murman.Ru informs. Cold weather and absence of steam for heating of oil products caused the congestion as the discharge rack was out of operation and there were no free reservoirs to store oil products.


From early January daily discharge of oil was 194 tank wagons against 259 planned tank wagons.


It is not the first case when the station terminates supply of oil products.
