摘要：

For intermodal transport to be competitive with road haulage, it is of importance that the transferring of transport units happens efficiently. Therefore, in this paper, the working of an intermodal terminal is analysed using a simulation model. The focus is on a rail-road freight transport terminal. To analyse the impact of several input factors on the efficiency of the terminal, an experimental design is set up. The results of the simulation study show that the number of containers and the number of handling equipment are the most important variables. The arrival pattern of trucks has almost no influence on the output measures.
