Rail intermodal services move containerized freight using a combination of rail and truck. Typically, a drayage carrier handles pickup, the container moves long distance by rail, and another truck completes final delivery. This approach can reduce highway miles, support reliable capacity, and create efficient options for shippers moving freight through port, rail, warehouse, or distribution networks.
