Rail-rail transshipment yards are an emerging and more ecient alternative totraditional shunting yards. Instead of a time-consuming reshuing of railcarsvia shunting hills, in these modern yards, huge gantry cranes tranship containersbetween different freight trains. As multiple cranes process...

At rail-road transshipment yards, gantry cranes move containers from freighttrains to trucks and vice versa. They constitute important entities in today'sintermodal transportation systems. Real-world yards are often partitionedinto several disjunct crane areas, so that crane interferences during...

To enable rapid container transshipment between freight trains in modern rail-rail transshipment yards efficient computerized scheduling procedures are indispensable. This paper proposes a dynamic programming approach, which determines yard areas for gantry cranes, so that the workload is evenly...
