This paper analyzes the Soviet Union's railroad freight rate structure and describes the changes which have occurred in it through the years. The current rate schedule largely conforms with western notions on freight rates and is determined by many of the same factors, although shipping cost remains of paramount importance. Also, the rate structure no longer specifically favors longer hauls, particular regions, or individual commodities as much as it did in the past
