    Energy and economic benefits from economies of scale in intercity freight transportation

    Unit costs

    The decline in transport unit costs with increasing average load applies to all freight modes and is invariant across space and time as shown in Fig. 1. Each of the five freight transport modes is represented by a distinct trajectory….
