| 摘要： | Intermodal rail-truck transportation is often cited as a potential remedy to a number of congestion-related issues. However, intermodals effectiveness in This role is dependent on the ability to use this freight alternative in relatively short-haul situations. The current analysis reviews the history of intermodal transport, current intermodal operations, and available suites of intermodal equipment in order to evaluate the potential for increased short-haul intermodal applications. The analysis includes simulations of shipper alternative choices developed through use of the Federal Railroad Administrations Intermodal Transportation and Inventory Cost (ITIC) modeling platform. These simulations consider both endogenous and exogenous changes in intermodal service costs. |
