The acceptance of freight pipeline as a new mode of transporting solid goods over long distances depends on its cost competitiveness with other modes of transport. However, it will also be affected by how well it compares with them on other grounds. This report compares the noise impact of various transportation modes. Since pipeline, except for compressor stations, does not generate any noise, the analysis enables estimating noise levels only for train, TOFC, and truck. The analysis considers unit train, conventional train, and truck. It assumes that for unit train the freight to be transported constitutes the total traffic, while for conventional train, and truck, it is that which is in addition to present freight traffic.
