Intermodal freight transport involves the transportation of freight in an intermodal container or vehicle, using multiple modes of transportation (rail, ship, and truck), without any handling of the freight itself when changing modes. The method reduces cargo handling, and so improves security, reduces damage and loss, and allows freight to be transported faster. Reduced costs over road trucking is the key benefit for intermodal freight delivery, as well as reduced greenhouse gas emissions. In North America, the term Intermodal is mostly use for rail freight using the formula of truck-rail-truck, door to door. An example would be moving freight from the east coast (i.e. Newark) to the west coast (i.e. Los Angeles) by rail. Rapid Express Freight will handle the entire process.
