of

multimodal

transport

Minimizing

time

loss

at

of

goods;

Reducing

the

burden

of

documentation

3.Different

types

of

multimodal

transport

operations

Currently，

different

types

of

multimodal

transport

operations

involving

different

combinations

are

taking

place.

These

are

sea/air，

air/road，

rail

/road

/inland

waterways-sea-rail/road/inland

waterways，

mini-bridge，

land

bridge，

piggyback

and

sea

train.

Sea/air

combines

in

itself

the

economy

of

sea

transport

and

the

speed

of

air

transport.

The

economics

of

this

combination

mode

favor

high

value

items（高价值货）

like

electronics，

electrical

goods，

computers

and

photographic

equipment.

In

air/road，

road

transport

is

now

being

increasingly

used

for

trucking

air

freight（车运航空货物）

over

long

distances，

sometimes

across

national

boundaries，

to

connect

with

the

main

bases

of

airlines

operating

long

haul

services

such

as

transpacific，

transatlantic

and

inter-continental.

Rail/road/inland

waterways-sea-rail/road/inland

waterways

mode

is

in

common

use

when

goods

have

to

be

moved

by

sea

from

one

country

to

another

and

one

or

more

inland

modes

of

transport

such

as

rail，

road

or

inland

waterways

have

to

be

used

for

moving

goods

from

an

inland

center

to

the

seaport

in

the

country

of

origin

or

from

the

seaport

to

an

inland

center

in

the

country

of

destination

Mini-bridge

（小陆桥）involves

the

movement

of

containers，

under

a

through

bill

of

lading

issued

by

an

ocean

carrier，

by

a

vessel

from

a

port

in

one

country

to

a

port

in

another

country

and

then

by

rail

to

a

second

port

city

in

the

second

country，

terminating

at

the

rail

carrier’s

terminal

in

the

second

port

city.

Land

bridge

system

concerns

itself

with

shipment

of

containers

overland

as

a

part

of

a

sealand

or

a

sea-land-sea

route.

In

this

case，

the

railways

are

paid

a

flat

rate

by

the

ocean

carrier

who

issues

the

through

bill

of

lading.

This

system

is

in

operation

for

the

movement

of

containers

on

certain

important

international

routes.

Piggyback

（驮运）is

a

system

of

unitized

multimodal

land

transportation

of

transport

by

road

and

rail.

It

combines

in

itself

the

speed

and

reliability

of

rail

on

long

trunk

hauls

with

door-to-door

flexibility

of

road

transport

for

collection

and

delivery.

Sea

train（火车轮渡）

is

another

innovation

in

the

multimodal

transport

system

involving

the

use

of

rail

and

ocean

transport.

It

is

similar

to

the

roll-on，

roil-off

system

except

that

in

the

place

of

the

ro-ro

vehicle

a

rail

car

is

used

so

that

geographically

separated

rail

systems

can

be

connected

by

the

use

of

an

ocean

carrier.
