Transport of dangerous goods
Transports of these goods are realized in accordance with the Regulation concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Rail (RID). ČD Cargo has nominated two RID safety advisers, who are holders of a certificate of professional competence for railway transport of dangerous goods, which is issued by the Ministry of Transport of the Czech Republic.
ČD Cargo, a.s., also provides inspections of dangerous goods in accordance with the IRS 40471-3 issued by the UIC. This IRS specifies the obligations of carriers resulting from the provisions of paragraph 1.4.2.2.1 of the RID Regulations, with the aim to maintain quality of transport and inspections at a consistently high level.

Transport of exceptional consignments
Transport of exceptional consignments falls with responsibility of the working group PREMIZA. Based on information obtained from the customer, it seeks the optimal options for transporting the consignment by rail, negotiates its transport with successive carriers, and works closely with the exceptional consignment group of the Sales Department. Extraordinary consignments on the railway include, for example, goods exceeding the loading gauge, consignments exceeding the specified route class, loads whose securing does not comply with the UIC Loading Guidelines, rail vehicles running on their own wheels that may only be transported under special operating conditions, etc.
