1Intermodal includes U.S. Postal Service and courier shipments and all intermodal combinations, except air and truck.
2Pipeline and unknown shipments are combined because data on region-to-region flows by pipeline are statistically uncertain.
3Data do not include imports and exports that pass through the United States from a foreign origin to a foreign destination by any mode.

Note: Numbers may not add to total due to rounding.
