This book provides an introduction to the whole concept of intermodal freight transport, the means of delivering goods using two or more transport modes, recounting both European experience and UK developments and reporting on the extensive political influences on this form of transport. This is placed into context with reference to developments in North America and Asia.

Detailed explanations are given of the road and rail vehicles, the loading units and the transfer equipment used in such operations. In particular, the role of the Channel Tunnel in the development of long-haul combined transport operations between the UK and Europe is considered.

Arvustused

"In this excellent and extremely comprehensive book David Lowe builds on his established reputation as one of this countrys leading transport writers to explain and illustrate the key concept of intermodal transport in detail.

This is a timely and readable volume which will appeal to policy makers and practitioners at every level. I thoroughly commend it."

Steven Norris FCILT, FIHT Minister for Transport 1992 96 Director General, The Road Haulage Association 1997 - 99

"The author has once again produced a definitive reference book on a topic scarcely covered elsewhere in the pool of logistics literature.In short the reference work for all to turn to for facts and figures on intermodal freight transport. " Logistics & Transport Focus
