Russian goods lines make a significant share in the aggregate traffic of cargoes from Europe, thus the basic goods lines go through the North European countries. Many businessmen prefer to transport the cargo on this route. For today Finland is the strongest competitor among the EU countries in struggle for the Russian transit streams. Transportation of cargoes through Finland has serious advantages, namely there is no necessity to cross borders of the third countries (Poland, Belarus etc.), besides the sphere of transport transportations and logistical services develops actively there.

The activity of transportation of cargoes from Europe to Russia through Finland constantly increases because the Petersburg port physically does not cope with a goods traffic going through it. Terms of processing of containers and registration of cargoes exceed week that forces cargo owners to choose other routes. Operators enter extra charges for each container delivered in port of Petersburg now that does not raise its status. Senders prefer to carry cargoes through Finland, in spite of the fact that transportation by motor transport from ports of this country to Russia makes their delivery more expensive. Also there is a possibility to keep cargo from Europe in warehouses without customs registration as long time as you need in Finland that is not possible in Russia.

The cargo communication between Russia and Finland is stable and also has a stock for essential increase in transit of cargoes. There are 24 trains from Finland to Russia and one of them is “Severnoye Sianie” which goes to Moscow. Presence of a railway track of 1520 mm in Finland rather simplifies a railway delivery of cargoes (the same as in Russia), at border crossing it is not necessary to change wheel pairs as it is necessary to do transporting cargoes to Europe. Nevertheless, at transportation of cargo from Finland we can not manage without application of sea transport yet.
