Information
has glosseng: For the data downloading process, see sideload. Transloading is the process of transferring a shipment from one mode of transportation to another. It is most commonly employed when one mode cannot be used for the entire trip, as for instance when goods must be shipped internationally from one inland point to another. Such a trip might require transport by truck to an airport, then by airplane overseas, and thence to another truck at its destination; or it might involve bulk material (such as coal) loaded to rail at the mine, and then transferred to ship at a port. Transloading is also required at railroad break of gauge points since the equipment between lines is not compatible.
