Rail: * Boxcar availability* IM Infrastructure
Warehouse: * Inventories* Rail Served* Off Port/Near Port
Changes in Providing Chassis in the Container Industry
• Ocean carriers focusing on cost rationalizing and focusing on core business
• Third party equipment providers better suited to bring efficiency to chassis operations over time
• No single uniform solution adopted by all carriers• New opportunities for direct contracting between OTI’s, BCO’s and equipment providers

Some Major Recent and Underway Intermodal Corridor and Terminal Projects
Important characteristics of the intermodal network
• Must accommodate both domestic and international business
• Focused around high volume origin‐destination pairs• At its best when operated as single origin to destination trains.
• Cost control and service reliability is critical.
Characteristics of newer generation of intermodal terminals
• Usually located outside immediate urban areas• Easily accessible to strong highway network, which allows rail corridor volumes to be maximized
• Designed to accommodate adjacent distribution/production centers
• Future growth land available• Minimization of “on terminal” vehicle movements
Characteristics of strong intermodal corridors
• Capacity sufficient to keep trains moving/avoid congestion delays
• Sufficient length to compete with truck service/cost• Sufficient density to keep costs competitive• Strong highway feeder system at each end at intermediate
terminals.
• The supply chain is healthy• Competition is vibrant• Equipment efficiency is improving• Equipment quality is improving• Innovation & collaboration is accelerating
