But the railroad consignment is different from the aviation consignment, the environmental conditions of the train compartment compared to the aircraft cabin is much worse. Airplanes have a special oxygen supply system and temperature control equipment, while the train compartment is closed, but this is not to say that there is no oxygen in the compartment, but the supply of oxygen is the result of natural ventilation, and there is no temperature control equipment, of course, in the compartment is very stuffy, which is not the same for the train transportation of pets in the transport container requirements and aviation consignment.
On the one hand, the size of the pet transportation cage is required to enable dogs/cats to stand with their heads fully upright (and not touch the top of the cage), to turn around and lie down comfortably, especially for collapsed-nosed dogs, which require a larger pet transportation cage to avoid breathing problems. On the other hand, good enough ventilation is also required. Further, because of the mixed loads in the train compartment, live and general cargo together, it is required that pet feces and urine cannot contaminate other items, so the container should come with a fecal tray.

And the railroad consignment department is recognized as a wire cage as a transport container, but be sure to select the right wire cage, to be strong, can not let the pet run out of it, resulting in accidents.
