ABSTRACT:
An intermodal transport system designed for use in the hauling of semi-trailers by means of railway bogies. The system combines a turntable and spring-loaded chock design to enable the efficient loading and unloading of semi-trailers. A novel turntable design reduces bending stresses in transit while the combined chock reduces labor requirements during the loading and unloading processes since an automatic locking in place is achieved.
