The old "break bulk" shipping, in which teams of longshoremen loaded and unloaded ships by hand, didn't require much spaceLOL, you worked the docks? Break bulk was very labor-intensive and many loads had to be done by hand, making it "break back" shipping. Containerized shipping is completely different. It requires massive amounts of landside space and double-stack rail access LOL, false. You have no idea how many rails are gone from the shores of the Hudson, do you? Are you really a railfan? Go to Liberty State Park one day . . . that wild area used to be covered in railroad tracks, all to serve the old "break bulk" style shipping. |
