Vinsum Axpress has entered into a strategic collaboration with the Dedicated Freight Corridor Corporation of India Ltd (DFCCIL) to spearhead a transformative initiative that combines the efficiency of trucks with the reliability of trains by embracing the innovative Roll-on/Roll-off (RORO) model.
In partnership with DFCCIL, Vinsum Axpress will explore the opportunity to integrate trucks on trains, unlocking a new era in freight logistics. Loaded trucks will be directly carried by railway wagons to their destination. By tapping into the expansive network of Dedicated Freight Corridors (DFCs), the company aims to streamline the movement of goods from Rewari (Haryana) to Palanpur (Gujarat) and beyond, reducing transit times and optimising operational costs.
The RO-RO Train aka TRUCK on TRAIN model is a game-changer in the transportation industry, offering a seamless blend of road and rail capabilities. This hybrid approach not only enhances speed but also minimises the environmental impact, promoting a more sustainable and eco-friendly logistics solution.
Moreover, the incorporation of the RORO model adds an extra layer of efficiency. Trucks can effortlessly drive onto specially designed rail wagons, eliminating the need for time-consuming loading and unloading processes. This innovative system ensures a swift and smooth transition between road and rail, maximising the overall efficiency of the transportation process. Further, it reduces fuel consumption, decreases wear and tear of vehicles, provides relief to drivers when driving in extreme conditions and terrains, and helps reach destinations faster and on-time.
Vinsum Axpress’s commitment to innovation and sustainability is evident in this groundbreaking collaboration. By leveraging the capabilities of DFCCIL’s dedicated freight corridors, the company is not only aiming to enhance its operational capabilities but also contribute to the larger goal of modernising India’s freight logistics infrastructure.
