I was surprised at how many freight trains we saw -- triple-headers, hundreds of cars long, stretching off into the distance. Some of it included mineral cars & misc. other types, but the bulk of it was containerized shipping -- consumer goods from China and elsewhere around the Pacific, unloaded at LA or Long Beach and making the long trek across the desert to markets to the east.
Hutchinson Island is a river island in the Savannah River, north of downtown Savannah in Chatham County, Georgia, United States. The island is formed where the Back River breaks off to the north from the Savannah River. Historically, Hutchinson Island's land use has been primarily industrial, much of which supported the Port of Savannah, one of the busiest containerization cargo ports in the world. The island is roughly 7 miles long and 1 mile wide at its widest point.

ARG’s broad gauge loco 841 approaching Ethelton station with the WMC Shunt on 6 June 2005.
The WMC Shunt moved Western Mining Corporation’s containerized, semi-processed mineral products (copper cathodes) from the Port Adelaide area to Pelican Point, Outer Harbor for export. The train was operated by ARG, using broad gauge locos and rolling stock on account of the particular sidings used in Port Adelaide area. It ran from 2002 to 2006 and was a rare example in the 21st Century of a newly-introduced, short-distance railfreight operation within a metropolitan area.
Following construction of the Port River rail bridge, the WMC Shunt would have had a much easier journey than its original route via Gillman Junction, the Rosewater Loop and Glanville, but by the time the new bridge opened, the train had been discontinued (and WMC had been taken over by BHP Billiton).

There has been a fire today at Ironbridge Power Station and I was surprised to see 4G01 Seaford to Ironbridge still running when I looked on RTT, I believe all the booked workings that were on route to Ironbridge made it there, however I do not think anything worked out of the power station.

Assignment #3. Deserted. Take photo of an area that we typically associate with crowds when it’s empty. Tag with cwd363.
Maybe not exactly the intension with the assignment but these areas used to be full of activity and workers before shipping was containerized.
Melbourne Docklands is a suburb in Melbourne, Australia. It occupies an area extending up to 2 km west from the CBD.
Melbourne Docklands is a primarily waterfront area centered around the banks of the Yarra River. Currently, much of this area is being developed to become a new inner city suburb.
Melbourne Docklands is best known as home to the Etihad Stadium, Southern Cross Station and a large number of modern buildings and eccentric public artworks.
The Docklands precinct was originally used for docks, but fell out of use following the containerization of shipping traffic. The space remained vacant and unused during the 1980s and it fell in to disrepair. It was used for "special events" during the 1990s, becoming notable for a number of dance and rave parties.
The redeveloped area will almost double the size of the city's central business district. With a residential population primarily living in high-density high rise apartments, the current population is approximately 6000 persons.

GPLN member Arshiya Logistics WLL (formerly BDP Qatar WLL) handled some
Groove Cranes movement from Michel Machinery Company Inc in the United
States for the Qatari Shareholding Company (QSC) who is engaged into Dolphin
Gas Project and several projects for RasGas / Qatar Gas in Qatar.
Arshiya Logistics WLL(Qatar) with help of 5K Logistics handled this project
movement Ex-USA factory to Qatar project site. The transportation was done
using a MAFI-Cargo trailers from the factory to Galveston Port. The pick up
locations were:
- St. Louis, Missouri - 2 cranes
- Corpus Christi, Texas - one crane
- Oklahoma City, Oklahoma - one crane
A breakulk vessel from Galveston Port, United States, to Doha, Qatar was
booked. Arshiya Logistics also handled inland haulage from Doha Port to the
Qatari client's site using low bed trailers and as well was engaged into
arranging the duty waiver and exemption for this client at Doha Customs.
Along with the haulage Arshiya arranged the police escort and Qatar Traffic
Department permissions.
Initially, QSC had to move total four Grove cranes and the value was approx
USD 1.8 million. Technical specifications were 581.624 m3 and total gross
weight of 160 tons with height of 3.5 meters. There were letter of credit
problems considering the time deadline, etc., and many bottlenecks in
documentation because the supplier was dealing with Qatar client for the
first time.
QSC nominated GPLN member Arshiya Logistics, considering Arshiya's
professionalism in project logistics globally. But handling projects
requires special personalized touch as well as technical expertise because
it is totally different ball game than normal containerized business. The
following hurdles are confirm that if any project movement is given to any
inexperienced service provider just based on rates then blue chip clients
are off course paying penalties for their decision.
1) Just one day before the vessel arrival in Galveston Port Hurricane Ike
hit the area.
2) Power, water issues keep Galveston Port offline for about two weeks
after Hurricane Ike left the port and much of the region. There was no trace
of any shipment as the Port Authority closed the port.
3) But for Arshiya Logistics WLL (Qatar) it was matter client serving and
100% transparency. Arshiya Logistics arranged a 3rd-party surveyor to the
port with help the help of 5K Logistics, the GPLN member in Philadelphia.
The surveyor accessed the cranes and completed the survey. Everything was
okay except some few tires, which were affected because of mud.
4) Most of the vessels cancelled calling at Galveston Port after this
hurricane.
5) These cranes were lying in Galveston Port for almost 45 days.
Shipment was urgent for the Qatari company and for that they had full trust
in Arshiya Logistics's reliability and professionalism. Arshiya Logistics
managed to get the shipment out from United States and in Doha within 40
days without any rate hike and port storage issues.
Arshiya Logistics team of Mr. Vaibhav Malpekar and Mr. Jigar Shah, with 5K
Logistics (Mr. Paul J McGrath and team) were in full coordination and had
conference calls almost every day in order to work out alterative solutions
so that the delivery of these four cranes to the client could be managed as
per prior commitment, in spite of all these hurdles.
Arshiya Logistics is handling more projects for the New Doha International
Airport (NDIA) as well as KAHRAMA (the Qatar Water & Electricity Board).

Together with the Port of Long Beach, the Port complex handles 40% of all containerized goods from China. At the Port, Vice President Xi met with employees of China Shipping, which is undertaking a major expansion project of their terminal within the Port of Los Angeles. Mr. Xi said that the port’s development and China Shipping are "a solid foundation for continued U.S. and China trade and continued economic cooperation."
Mr. Xi’s visit will have "a direct effect on" China's relationship with the U.S., said Li Shaode, the chairman of Shanghai-based China Shipping. He also noted that his company’s ships are returning from the Port of Los Angeles with more U.S. products. Mr Li stated: "American exports...have benefits for the U.S. and the Chinese people."

On the Plaza is an example of an intermodal shipping container made famous by Malcolm Purcell McLean (November 14, 1913 – May 25, 2001), an American businessman. who developed the modern intermodal shipping container, which revolutionized transport and international trade in the second half of the twentieth century. Containerization led to a significant reduction in the cost of freight transportation by eliminating the need for repeated handling of individual pieces of cargo, and also improved reliability, reduced cargo theft, and cut inventory costs by shortening transit time. The idea of transporting trucks on ships was put into practice before World War II. In 1926 regular connection of the luxury passenger train from London to Paris, Golden Arrow/Fleche d'Or, by Southern Railway and French Northern Railway began. For transport of passengers' baggage, four containers were used. These containers were loaded in London or Paris and carried to ports, Dover or Calais, on flat cars in the UK and “CIWL Pullman Golden Arrow Fourgon of CIWL” in France. In the early 1950s, McLean decided to attempt use of the containers commercially. By 1952, he was developing plans to carry his company's trucks on ships along the U.S. Atlantic coast, from North Carolina to New York. It soon became apparent that "trailerships", as they were called, would be inefficient because of the large waste in potential cargo space on board the vessel, known as broken stowage. The original concept was modified into loading just the containers, not the chassis, onto the ships, hence the designation container ship or "box" ship. n 1956, most cargoes were loaded and unloaded by hand by longshoremen. Hand-loading a ship cost $5.86 a ton at that time. Using containers, it cost only 16 cents a ton to load a ship, 36-fold savings. Containerization also greatly reduced the time to load and unload ships. McLean knew "A ship earns money only when she's at sea", and based his business on that efficiency. In April 1957, the first container ship, the Gateway City, began regular service between New York, Florida, and Texas. During the summer of 1958 McLean Industries, still using the name Pan-Atlantic Steamship Corporation, inaugurated container service between the U.S. and San Juan, Puerto Rico with the vessel Fairland. The name was officially changed from Pan-Atlantic Steamship Corporation to Sea-Land Service, Inc. in April 1960. McLean's operation was profitable by 1961 and he kept adding routes and buying bigger ships.
