The following paper introduces comparison and evaluation of two intermodal transport technologies. The first of them is “rolling motorway” technology, better known as “Rollende Landstrasse” or ”Ro–La”, while the second one is called pocket wagons technology. We present general characteristics of chosen intermodal freight transport technologies in a form of a brief description of both intermodal technologies. Moreover, we describe initial processes, loading and operations in the case of the two mentioned technologies. The paper contains as well as computing example and the schemes of intermodal freight transhipments terminals for “rolling motorway” and pocket wagons technologies and inevitably means of transport to be used in the technologies. The chosen wagon types taken into consideration are as it follows. In case of “Rollende Landstrasse” technology we chose wagon types of 602S, Saadkkms and Saadkms and in case of the second technology the chosen types of wagons are: Sdggmrss, Sdgnss and Sdgmnss. Different kind of wagons in mentioned technologies are pictured and briefly described. Additionally, freight wagons – potentially used in the mentioned technologies – are evaluated with use of selected methods applicable in evaluation of alternatives. Wagons are evaluated under the specified conditions, especially with taking into consideration chosen operational parameters of them. In conclusion we relate to current condition of internal transhipment terminals in Poland and other aspects that concern them.
