2020 performance highlights

Macroeconomic consequences of the spread of the coronavirus infection in 2020 affected freight traffic volumes. However, their negative impact on long-haul and suburban passenger transportation was even stronger. At the same time, performance enhancement measures helped to maintain positive growth of qualitative rolling stock operation parameters, such as the schedule speed and the average daily performance of a freight train locomotive.
