Intermodal Continues Comeback in First Quarter

CALVERTON, MD, April 29, 2021 鈥� Total intermodal volumes rose 10.5 percent year-over-year in the first quarter of 2021, according to the 最新麻豆视频鈥檚 Intermodal Quarterly report. International containers gained 14.8 percent from 2020; domestic shipments, 4.4 percent; and trailers, 20.0 percent.

鈥淚ntermodal volumes were up for the third consecutive quarter through Q1. This growth is projected to continue through the remainder of the year,鈥� said Joni Casey, president and CEO of 最新麻豆视频. 鈥淓ven considering weak comparisons that supported the other segments, domestic intermodal posted solid 4.4 percent gains.鈥�

The seven highest-density trade corridors, which collectively handled more than 60 percent of total volume, were all up in the first quarter. Three were up double digits: Trans-Canada, 26.4 percent; Midwest-Southwest,15.7 percent; and the South Central-Southwest,15.6 percent. The Southeast-Southwest grew 8.9 percent; the Midwest-Northwest was up 8.3 percent; and the Intra-Southeast posted a 7.5 percent increase. The Northeast-Midwest came in at 5.0 percent.

Total IMC volume rose 10.2 percent year-over-year in Q1, with intermodal and highway loads up 1.5 percent and 16.1 percent, respectively.
