- For today, we decided to take a break from railway infrastructure projects and discussions about different countries’ railway systems, and instead, we’ll talk about one - let’s say - pure railway topic.

This video is therefore dedicated to the concept of a Marshalling Yard, and its role in the railway transport system.

The term Marshalling Yard actually varies depending on where you are, but, for example, in the US and Canada, it is known as the Classification Yard, while in Central Europe rather the Shunting Yard.

Besides a basic discussion about the role of the Marshalling yard in the railway system, the technology of work with trains and wagons in the yard, the types, and classifications of yards, we tried to show some examples of the world’s largest Marshalling yards.

Do you think we managed to present the main aspects of the railway technology in Marshalling yards? Tell us in the comments below!
