In the broadest sense, a goods station<\/span><\/strong> or logistics center is a railway terminal or freight terminal. Where either primarily or solely, goods, like goods packed goods, parcels, or manufactured goods, are loaded on or off of trucks or trailers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Where goods wagons are moved to local sidings or docks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is the main function of a freight terminal. Most of the goods stored here are transported to distant locations by road or air.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But some of the goods may be shipped by sea or land.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Goods stations<\/strong> can be classified into three basic types.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The first category is the depots where goods are stored temporarily while other goods are bought or sold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The second category is a warehouse where the goods are bought, stored, and delivered at a later date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The third category of goods storage facility is called an inland storage warehouse (ISW).<\/p>\n\n\n\n In this type of warehousing facility, the goods are stored either outdoors or inside a building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The best and a good place to keep goods are a location near the main road. If the goods are small, it would be better to have a good warehouse on the roadside so that the goods do not become damaged or stolen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Goods placed near the highway also require a higher insurance cost because of the possibility of damage to the goods or theft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n However, the most commonly used area for storing goods is in a rural area near the main roads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This makes it easier to transport the goods to the location where they are needed. Moreover, the transportation cost is lower<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nGoods Station<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The placement of goods near the road depends on its size.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
