Freight car

A freight car is a type of railway vehicle designed to carry goods or cargo along train tracks. These cars come in various types—such as boxcars for general merchandise, flatcars for large or heavy items, tank cars for liquids, and hopper cars for bulk materials like coal or grain. They are an essential part of freight transportation, enabling the efficient movement of goods across long distances by rail. Freight cars are designed to be durable, making loading, unloading, and securing cargo safe and effective during transit.
