What is a "unit train"?
A unit train is a type of train that carries a single type of cargo in a continuous, uninterrupted movement. All the cars in a unit train are usually loaded with the same kind of goods, such as coal, grain, or oil, and they travel together from one place to another without making stops to pick up or drop off other types of cargo. This type of train is efficient because it minimizes delays and handling, allowing the goods to be transported quickly and directly to their destination. Unit trains are often used for large-scale, bulk shipments.
Example
The unit train delivered a large shipment of coal to the power plant.
The company uses a unit train to move oil directly from the refinery to the port.
Every day, the unit train transports grain from the farms to the city.
