All 10 of the largest U.S. container ports are using some form of automation technology to process and handle cargo. At least 1 terminal at each port uses it to track and communicate container movements. Port operators consider factors like costs, profitability, priorities, and labor agreements when deciding whether to automate. Some port stakeholders said automation can improve worker safety, simplify tasks, and increase efficiency. Others noted mixed effects on performance, such as one port's automated equipment working slower than conventional equipment. Other possible tradeoffs include, for example, reductions or changes in port jobs.

The largest freight flows in the US are concentrated on a relatively small number of corridors. The figure below highlights segments of the freight transportation network that carry more than 50 million tons per year, which include: - Highway segments that carry at least 8,500 trucks per day, which is the number needed to move 50 million tons per year at 16 tons per truck. - Additional highway segments and parallel rail lines that together carry at least 8,500 truck, trailer-on-flatcar, and container-on-flatcar payloads of typically high-value, time-sensitive cargo at 16 tons per payload. - Rail lines and waterways that carry 50 million tons in bulk cargo per year.

Even more interesting is to track the potential shift in "equilibrium" between rail activity and service performance. For instance, during week 22, YOY BNSF experienced a +20% surge in volume, followed by a +6% increase in Cars Online and a 4% deterioration in speed. #RailActivity #ServicePerformance #Logistics
