Rail freight is the transportation of goods via train networks, often used for moving bulk materials and large volumes over long distances. Rail is cost-effective and environmentally friendly compared to road transport but can have longer transit times and less flexibility.In supply chain management, rail freight plays a vital role in replenishment strategies for inventory, particularly for heavy or non-perishable goods. Coordination of rail schedules with warehouse operations ensures timely inventory availability and supports cost-efficient supply chains.
