Travel speeds, average load volumes, and costs per mile have been determined for 15 different trucking methods. Equations have been developed to predict rail and barge transportation costs. Several photographs are provided for user association and correlation with the study results. The assumptions and methods used to compute the owning and operating costs for the 15 different trucking methods are given in the appendix.
