Decrease in handling of iron ore raw materials by 21.9%, coal by 24.1%, and chemical cargoes by 68.4%, compared to January, 2017, is due to the prolonged action of storm warnings for more than 10 days.

Transshipments of general cargo in January 2018 decreased by 2.8% or 31.4 thousand tons and reached 1,085 thousand tons. The main decrease — 35 thousand tons — was due to the reduction of volumes of ferrous metals and cast iron by 3.6% from 928 thousand tons, as well as the adverse weather conditions and restrictions on loading on the railway.
Transshipment of non-ferrous metals increased by 5.8% and amounted to 111 thousand tons compared to January, 2017.
