On November 9, 2026, a signing ceremony was held between two companies, automotive logistics and railway transportation. On one side of the signing table is Anji Logistics, and on the other side is China Railway Special Goods. The management of both parties were present to witness the signing, and after the representatives signed, the cooperation shifted from daily business dealings to institutionalized collaboration. For automotive logistics, the efficiency of the connection between railways, highways, and waterways often determines the delivery rhythm of the entire vehicle from the main factory to distributors or overseas customers. The target of this signing is precisely the difficult connection problem in this chain.

Speed up the intermodal transportation of public rail and iron

Both parties have identified multimodal transportation of railway, rail and water as a key focus of cooperation, promoting smoother conversion of commercial vehicles between railway trunk lines, highway short haul and waterway transportation. Railways are suitable for medium to long-distance large-scale transportation, highways are good at collecting and distributing at both ends, and waterways have cost advantages on specific routes. How to connect the three methods and reduce intermediate waiting is a problem that both parties need to solve together. Collaboration will not remain at the framework level, but will gradually be implemented through specific business scenarios.

Cross border single system solves the problem

Cross border logistics single order system is another cooperation content. In the past, the export of commercial vehicles involved multiple modes of transportation and multiple links, with scattered document circulation, responsibility allocation, and information tracking. Both parties plan to explore a one-stop, fully responsible service approach in cross-border transportation, reducing duplicate procedures when goods are transferred between railways, highways, and waterways. The exchange of digital information has also been incorporated into the cooperation, and the data docking between the two systems will help customers to more timely grasp the location and transportation status of vehicles.

Both parties will also exchange management experience and learn from each other's practices in automobile logistics and railway special cargo transportation. Cooperation is moving from consensus to institutionalized operation, and the full chain service capability of automotive logistics is expected to be improved accordingly.Editor/Gao Xue
