'freight carrier' is the definition.
'goods train' can be an answer for 'freight' (thesaurus). I am not certain of the 'carrier' bit.

'great stress' is the wordplay.
'great' becomes 'good' (similar in meaning).
'stress' becomes 'strain' (synonyms).
'good'+'strain'='GOODS-TRAIN'

'caused by' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for goods train that I've seen before include "supplier on track" , "One running over tracks" , "Rail cargo carrier" , "freight vehicle" , "Means of transporting freight" .)
