The Cargo wagon is used in conjuction with Diesel locomotives to form trains for the Railway network.

A cargo wagon can be filled with 1000 items of ores (copper, iron, coal...) or 2000 item of processed plates (copper plates, iron plates, steel), which makes it a eventually a useful strategy to process the iron "in place", where you mine it, before you transport it to your factory. There are also other strategies of compressing the cargo before load.

The wagons can be filled/emptied at train stations and you need to keep in mind, that the inserter positions differs a bit, depending on, if you load vertical or horizontal.
