If the ports could get more docks and workers to sort out the containers, speedy container trains would make more sense. [/quote] Even if they could get the container from the vessel to the train instantaneously, I don't think my premise would change. The ocean liner does, at best 15 knots, over an incredible vast distance and sometimes have to wait outside the port for a bearth for a very long time. 5-7 hours compared to this time is NOTHING. Gabe [/quote] Don't the container ships run on schedules? [/quote] They sure as hell do. You see near-panic as dispatchers flood the port with out-bound boxes. That boat is a-fixing to leave and that box has to be on it.
