How to track a wagon by number

The wagon number is painted on its side: 7 or 8 digits. It shows the last known location, the station and whether the wagon is loaded or empty. The first search is free.

Where the number comes from

The number is painted on the wagon and written in the transport papers: 7 or 8 digits. A leading zero does not matter, 01234567 and 1234567 are the same wagon. A container number is different: it starts with letters and is not searched here.

What the answer contains

  • The station name, or a note that no station is given.
  • State: loaded, empty or unknown.
  • What time the data refers to.
  • When the answer was refreshed.

How fresh the data is

Reports refresh once or twice a day, so asking for the same wagon again straight away returns the same answer. That is why opening your own wagon again within 6 hours is free.

Route history

No. The page shows the current location only: where the wagon is now.

If the wagon is not found

Check the number first. If the number is right, the wagon is not in the reports: it may be new or outside the country.

Price

The first search is free for every account. Opening your own wagon again within 6 hours does not count either. After that, unlimited search comes with a subscription.

Up to 20 at once

You can check several wagons at once: one number per line or separated by commas, up to 20. Each number counts as a separate search.
