How to transport cement?

[Pethy]

Hi guys, I was thinking about to build an concrete industry. I planed to build a big factory in one city to produce cement and concrete blocks for panel buildings. The cement should be transport to other cities where it could be turned into fresh concrete in a local concrete factory.
The only problem is that I have no idea if how I could transport cement. I know there is a railroad car for this purpose but I found no station to load or unload it.

Yeah, I haven't seen any way to load cement onto rail either. I suggest using road hoppers to distribute to local concrete plants. You can use cement silos to make distribution networks. Not as efficient as rail but the plants don't seem to use that much cement.

For panel factories you're definitely going to want it close enough to the cement factory to build a factory connection.

I believe there is a western ($) rail wagon that can transport it, but I'm not sure of the year available

There's a wagon, but I don't think any of current rail stops let you load or unload cement.

I think you use a rail cargo directly hooked up to the cement plant...

Oh man. I just naively assumed that you could only load what goods were indicated with a buffer. I haven't got a chance to test this yet, but that sounds more right than my earlier theory...

Check it out. I haven't tried it myself. But it loads cars and they are not shown either

I can say from my research that yes, you can load cement to/from a cargo station.

Thank you guys for the help, it worked, it was the cargo station.
