Intermodal Transportation Bibliography

When newly elected ITI Board Chairman Stephen G. Branscum assumed his board position in Spring 2008, one of his goals was to strengthen the ITI research program. He was interested in  providing information that could be useful and applicable to the intermodal transportation industry.  He invited fellow board member Patrick Casey, TTX Company, to chair an ITI Board Research Committee. Casey organized his committee and, utilizing internal company resources, began the task of defining a research agenda for ITI by having an extensive, initial bibliography prepared of the research and the websites currently available.  Please see the following PDF documents, organized by topics, that detail research on intermodal transportation and provide links to a number of sources for data and research.  The ITI Board Research Committee welcomes your comments on this webpage and how it can be enhanced.
