had not heard of Volgodonsk before... key location obvs just by the name
What do you mean? I actually wasn't able to figure out how much this "canal" between the Caspian Sea and Black Sea is actually used. There don't seem to be very many boats between Volgograd and the Black Sea, and it's not easy to tell how big they are. https://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais/home/centerx:37.8/centery:45.6/zoom:6 …

looks like there is a canal (Niznedonsky) that starts at the SW corner of that lake... do not see any boats on Google either... probably trucking over

Yeah, probably trucking. There might be a container train or something. I really don't know the geography of this area at all... I was just curious as to how central asia does imports/exports of goods.
