16.6 billion tons?

at 17000 tons per trainload, that's just under a million trains a year - more than one train a minute? i don't think so. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.161.137.159 (talk) 18:13, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

Agreed. Million is more sensible. Tabletop (talk) 04:19, 1 May 2010 (UTC)
Tonne, long ton or short ton? Peter Horn User talk 01:35, 18 September 2012 (UTC)

The only language that handles this question correct is Slovenčina: Ročne sa po trati prepraví asi 14 miliónov ton nákladu a jej ročný výkon je 16,6 miliardy tonokilometrov. You should tell both, tons and ton-km's. Maybe they transport those tons about 1200 km. 14000000 ton * 1185 km = 16600000000 ton-km. Don't know the official unit, so I leave the correction to those who know. Why don't people use SI-units, a thousand ton is simply 1 Gg (Metric prefix giga). Would save us from that stupid billion short/long scale problem. 14 Tg * 1185 km = 16.6 Egm (Exa gram meter). Please correct to all other languages too. By the way, 6 trains a day. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.76.11.155 (talk) 04:41, 25 August 2017 (UTC)
