This report describes findings of research performed during the first year of work under the Contract. The purpose of the first year of research was to evaluate the technical and economic feasibility of freight pipeline as an intercity transportation mode. The report for the first year consists of the following five separate volumes: Cost and level of service comparison; Freight pipeline technology; Cost estimating methodology; Demand analysis methodology; Impact assessment. Volume 1 considers methodology of analysis, cost comparison, the demand for freight pipeline, and major conclusions. The second year of research currently is being devoted to sharpening the concepts, broadening the areas of concern, and applying the tools of analysis developed in the first year to a specific origin-destination transportation corridor.
