Abstract :
Recently intermodal transportation systems are significantly considered as enhanced technique or future railroad Logistics. These are aimed for particularly reducing complicated job process in the railroad based transportation and relevant logistic cost in economic viewpoint. In this paper we suggest a horizontal transfer system using hydro-motor and hydro-cylinder for intermodal transportation system. This system can assist to transfer the containers horizontally for train logistics automations.
