Intermodal 1: Being or involving transportation by more than one form of carrier during a single journey Shipments are loaded into containers and transported by truck from their origin to a nearby rail terminal where they are placed on a rail flat car for the line-haul portion of their journey. Finally, the containers are transported again by truck from the destination rail terminal to final destination.

  6. Multimodal Shippers/Carriers

  7. 53’ Container Ownership in the U.S. • Containers available for domestic intermodal use by for-hire truckload carriers and IMC’s • EMP, UMAX, and CSX containers are available for lease to all carriers and IMC’s • 2011 end of year estimate

  8. Domestic Transportation Industry Landscape Challenges Facing Truckload Carriers and Shippers: • Volumes and LH Rates Are on the Rise • Tightening Driver Market • Regulation: EOBR, CARB, HOS, CSA • Limited Access to Capital for Truckers • Demand for Capacity Continues to Rise • Aging Equipment • Intermodal gains in Truck Market Share • Continued increases in Diesel Cost
