Railways Transportation It is preferred due to high speed. Invariance to road transport, where vehicles run on a flat road or surface,rail vehicles are directionally managed by the rail tracks on which they run. Within the confines of the railway system, the rail vehicle is not influenced by traffic, points of diversion, and switch offs between modes. This makes the rail the most dependable mode for making long hauls across land with minimal damage. Trains commonly carry bulk cargo items such as coal, corn, iron, ore, and wheat, items that would be uneconomical toship by truck. Railways Transportation Maritime Transportation Itinvolves the movement of goods through oceans and seas. Cargo ships travel on almost every major body of water and have capacity to transport the highest volume of freight of any mode of transportation at the lowest cost. The greatest disadvantage of maritime cargo ships is the speed at which they operate. By far, maritime is the slowest mode of transportation. Additionally, the carbon ‘emissions produced by one cargo ship are equivalent to the emissions produced by 50 million cars. ee didi Maritime Transportation This document is the property of PHINMA EDUCATION EDUCATION CIE 128: Principles of Transportation Engineering eel Student Activity Sheet #1 Name: Class number: Section: Schedule!
