The article presents an analysis of railway freight transport in selected Eurasian transport corridors. The role of railway transport in shaping the single European transport area and the benefits resulting from it have been defined. Technical barriers to the implementation of intercontinental traffic were presented and initiatives to activate international trade were discussed.

With the rapid growth of Sino-European international trade and the ongoing development of “One Belt And One Road”, it can be predicted that the status of railway transportation in the international logistics system will be greatly enhanced, which urges us to further study the rules of international railway freight transportation. At present, the pattern of the rules system of international freight transport by railway is the two conventions of the international cargo association and the international cargo contract. In addition, the existing rules system of freight transport by railway in China also has some problems such as being too administrative, which needs to be reformed urgently. By comparing the contents of the two conventions of international railway freight transport and listing the possible conflicts in the substantive laws of various countries involved in the conventions, this paper designs a set of dispute settlement mechanism for “One Belt And One Road” railway transport, and puts forward some suggestions on the integration of the rules of “One Belt And One Road” international railway freight transport.

Organisation is a significant segment of every enterprise, and so is the case with companies providing railway freight transport services. The success of a company depends on the organisational structure that makes it much easier to conduct business owing to the clearly defined hierarchy and responsibilities that lead to the ultimate goal – freight transport. This paper defines and describes railway freight transport, as well as the impact of freight transport market liberalisation on the sole organisation of a company. Moreover, various organisational schemes are analysed along with their potential benefits for the railway transport. The organisation of HŽ Cargo Ltd. is shown together with an outline of business activities of certain organisational units of the company.

High efficient information sharing is the key factor to realize the integrated collaborative operation in through transport of railway freight. This paper presents a framework of information sharing among the railway enterprises and their customer enterprises. The information sharing demand was categorized into information sharing for demand-supply matching and the integrated collaborative operation. The information sharing content was defined according to the information sharing demand. Base on the current information technologies utilized in China’s railway freight transport, the framework of information sharing was constructed from four aspects: the hierarchy of information sharing, the mode architecture of information sharing, the methods of information collection and the supporting conditions of implementation.

In recent years, European ports have, due to the increasing traffic between the Far East and Europe, become increasingly important. Large volumes of freight come to ships and it is important to have a link to the mainland via railway, which should have a functional overall system. This research compares three variants of possible routes for railway freight transport from the North Adriatic ports of Rijeka, Koper, and Trieste to Žilina, in the north of Slovakia. The methodology for calculating the minimum package of train access charges for the countries covered by these routes is presented. A comparative analysis of train access charges (TAC) for the minimum access package for the corridors between North Adriatic ports and City of Žilina has also been conducted. The result entailed in this research is the most favourable railway route for freight transport from the North Adriatic ports to the City of Žilina.
