This is an interesting point for future collaboration with Japanese companies, given that Japan has moved forward in this regard

Bringing the Far East Closer: Approaches to Reducing Transport Costs
An important measure for adjustment is the tariff policy. We wouldn’t like to subsidize coal with tariffs. Cars are not ready for this. We just need a stable tariff policy. Russian Railways is building it absolutely right. There are preferences for new routes and for new promising cargo flows.
