PROTOTYPE AND BACKGROUND INFO:

An intermodal container, often called a shipping container, is a large standardized shipping container, designed and built for intermodal freight transport. These containers can be used across different modes of transport – from ship to rail to truck – without unloading and reloading their cargo. Intermodal containers are primarily used to store and transport materials and products efficiently and securely in the global containerized intermodal freight transport system. Container chassis, also called intermodal chassis, is a type of semi-trailer designed to securely carry an intermodal container. Chassis are used by truckers to deliver containers between ports, rail-yards, container depots, and shipper facilities.
