The cart (3) to be received is provided with a marking (M) which is arranged on an end face (25) of the cart (3) facing the tugger train (2) and extends along the end face (25) of the cart (3) facing the tugger train (2). The tugger train (2) is provided with at least one sensor device (30) that detects the marking (M). The sensor device (30) is operatively connected to a drive controller (60) of the tugger train (2) and the drive controller (60) is designed such that by means of the marking (M) of the cart (3) detected by the sensor device (30) of the tugger train (2), the tugger-train trailer (5) is stopped in the defined receiving position at the cart (3) to be received.
