Annotation. Since the beginning of 2022, after the sanctions imposed by the European Union and the United States against Russia, there has been a collapse in international trade. Enterprises were forced to reorient themselves towards Asian markets for exports. Since the majority of companies sending large batches of products use the railway, the freight flow at many polygons of JSC «Russian Railways» was disrupted. The article analyses the production capacity of Russian ports, and presents a plan to distribute the value of cargoes by shipment in order to fully market products and load empty ports to relieve the Eastern polygon of JSC «Russian Railways».
Key words. Polygon, Russian Railways, cargo flow, congestion, freight traffic, port, dispatch, logistics, commodity turnover, shipments.
