Since 1984, a mechanism for intermodal shipping known as
double-stack rail transport has become increasingly common. Rising to
the rate of nearly 70% of United States intermodal shipments, it
transports more than one million containers per year. The double-stack
rail cars design significantly reduces damage in transit and provides
greater cargo security by cradling the lower containers so their doors
cannot be opened. A succession of large, new domestic container sizes
was introduced to increase shipping productivity.
