Ideas about moving freight efficiently across one or more modes, from the shipping container that made intermodal transfer practical to the scheduling philosophies built on top of it. Belongs here: containerization, cold chain logistics, hub and spoke model, intermodal transport, just in time delivery, last mile logistics and logistics itself as the general concept. Does not belong here: mode-specific operating concepts such as demurrage (maritime) or piggyback transport (rail), which belong to their own mode's subcategory even when they serve a logistics purpose.
