Recently, train 48,056 loaded with 299.68 tons of soybean meal, carrying 14 new ventilation containers, from Quanzhou Shicuo station to Nanping Shaobu station. This is the "first" of a new type of railway ventilated container shipped in bulk in Fujian, marking that soybean meal has made a breakthrough in railway transportation mode, providing a more convenient and efficient material transportation guarantee for soybean processing and breeding enterprises in the southeast coastal area, and further reducing social logistics costs.

For a long time, soybean meal is shipped through the railway shed car, the loading process is extremely tedious, the need to detect packaging bags, etc., soybean meal is easy to cause spontaneous combustion in a closed environment. Using a new type of ventilated container to transport soybean meal is to ensure that the quality of the goods can be controlled at the same time, greatly reducing the transportation cost, innovative soybean meal logistics methods, and undoubtedly make the railway burst out more economic vitality.
Innovative logistics methods add new momentum to transportation efficiency. With the rapid progress of science and technology and the constant change of market demand, the traditional logistics mode has been difficult to meet the efficient operation of modern economy. The transportation sector, including the railway, has actively innovated and introduced advanced information technology to achieve real-time tracking and sharing of logistics information, making the transportation of goods more transparent and efficient. For example, national railway enterprises and related enterprises vigorously develop multimodal transport, and have developed 17 new box types such as rolled steel boxes, grain boxes, and dangerous cargo liquid tank boxes, promoting the transformation of railway transport from traditional "station to station" to "door to door" logistics services. In June this year, the volume of national railway containers, commodity vehicles, and cold chain goods shipments increased year-on-year, all hitting a record high in the same period, greatly improving logistics efficiency and reducing transportation costs.
Innovative logistics methods bring new opportunities for enterprise development. For many enterprises, efficient, convenient and low-cost logistics services are the key to enhance competitiveness. The innovation of railway logistics not only shortens the transportation time of goods, but also improves the reliability and stability of transportation. Recently, the Ministry of Transport issued the "Statistical Communique on the Development of the transport Industry in 2023", showing that the annual investment in railway fixed assets was 764.5 billion yuan, an increase of 7.5% over the previous year, and the annual investment in waterway fixed assets was 2016 billion yuan, an increase of 20.1% over the previous year. China's completed business freight volume of 54.747 billion tons, an increase of 8.1% over the previous year, the completed cargo turnover of 24,0646 billion tons kilometers, an increase of 6.3%. It is not difficult to see that a large part of the growing data is the result of a variety of transportation modes, which can allow enterprises to arrange production and sales plans more accurately, reduce inventory overstock, and improve the efficiency of capital turnover. Both large manufacturing enterprises and small, medium and micro enterprises can benefit from innovative logistics methods and further stimulate the vitality of market players.
Innovative logistics methods add new impetus to regional economic development. Strong logistics can strengthen the economic ties between different regions, promote the optimal allocation of resources and the coordinated development of industries. For example, relying on the innovation of railway logistics, Yichun and other places have accelerated the circulation speed of characteristic agricultural products and industrial products, expanded the market space, and promoted the rapid development of local economy. At the same time, the development of railway logistics can also drive the rise of related industries, such as logistics park construction, warehousing services, freight forwarding, etc., can create a large number of employment opportunities, and make positive contributions to the stable development of local economy and society.
Innovating logistics mode is an important measure to promote economic development. In the new era and new journey, the railway and other transportation departments should continue to give play to their own advantages, continue to explore and innovate, and burst out more vitality.
