In summary fashion this volume presents the physical nature of the nationwide intermodal network developed as a result of the analysis in terms of train operating patterns, link usage, terminal characteristics and railcar equipment. Based upon these components the report describes a possible pattern of traffic and investment growth during its beginning period and suggests the probable revenue and costs implications. Based upon this single start-up scenario a series of shipper, public and carrier benefits are described. This volume concludes with comments concerning the opportunities for technological improvements in a rail/truck intermodal operation.
