International experience of demand and increase in container freight railway traffic has been analyzed. High-speed train traffic on the route Moscow – Nizhny Novgorod railway (Russia) has been actively developing since 2010, for instance, in some sections, the railway line has been modernized and new high-speed trains were put into operation. Research trends in the railway infrastructure on the route Moscow – Nizhny Novgorod remain relevant, despite the fact, that the project of high-speed railway line Moscow-Kazan is still not accepted for implementation, and the section of the route Moscow – Nizhny Novgorod should be a priority. The volume of passenger traffic only by high-speed trains by the end of 2020 in this area could reach 3.7 million people. Thus, with the introduction of high-speed traffic, the passenger traffic will approach or even exceed 5 million people, i.e. the high-speed railway will become quite effective. Offered the organization of container transportation with special trains with speeds of 200 km/h and 250 km/h.
