Accompanied combined transport

Okay kiddo, have you ever seen a truck carrying a big container on its back, like when we see in the movies? Yeah, we are talking about that today. When we say "Accompanied combined transport", it means that the truck carrying that big container is not moving alone. It is also travelling with another vehicle, like a train or a ship. So, the container moves on a truck for some distance, and then the truck goes onto a train or ship to continue the journey.

This happens because sometimes a container has to travel to a place that is too far away from where it started on a truck. So, instead of just driving the whole way, it is taken on a train or ship for part of the journey. This way, it saves time and energy by moving several containers at once.

Now, when the truck is on the train or ship, it doesn't just sit there waiting until the next stop comes. It also moves on its own wheels, just like a car in a parking lot, but it moves slowly. Now, when the truck reaches its final destination, it is then unloaded from the train or ship, and it finally arrives at the place where the container needs to be delivered.

So, to sum it up, accompanied combined transport is when a container is transported on a truck, train, and ship, and the truck is with it every step of the way. It's like the container is on a big adventure, and the truck is its trusty companion!
