Increased security save from damage
As can be observed from
Improved efficiency

Saving time and labor
Flexibility about type of transportation destination states are
connected by trains.

TTC = RC+HC+TC
Lower Cost
Handling during shipping is eliminatedRC= Total cost of train
operation
No theft or pilferage
HC = Total cost of road
operation
TC = Terminal handling

Cons
(consisting of shunting cost,

transloading cost, fixed
investment
Not suitable for small
shipments
Heavy load can damage
road
Delay while delivering
goods
4
Recommendation
Costs at harbor
4 may
s
increase
As can be observed from the calculations, around 14% of
transport cost can be saved through inter modal transport
Because of high terminal handling cost, the inter modal is only
feasible for long distance transport
1
Assumptions :
As inter modal transport is not suitable for
low distance, it is applied only for distance
which is greater than 800 miles
*Per unit train freight is considered $ 0.66
*Per unit terminal handling cost is $268
*Reference : Intermodal Transport Cost Model and Intermodal Distribution in Urban Freight,

Total cost through this method =

*Milk run is designed for each cluster such that total daily

Longer storage of the product at warehouse
