Refrigeration is a process of moving heat from one location to another in controlled conditions.

The work of heat transport is traditionally driven by mechanical work, but can also be driven by heat, magnetism, electricity, laser, or other means.

Refrigeration has many applications, including, but not limited to: household refrigerators, industrial freezers, cryogenics, and air conditioning.

Heat pumps may use the heat output of the refrigeration process, and also may be designed to be reversible, but are otherwise similar to air conditioning units.

A railroad car or railcar (American and Canadian English), railway wagon or railway carriage (UK and UIC), also called a train car or train wagon, is a vehicle used for the carrying of cargo or passengers on a rail transport system (a railroad/railway).

Such cars, when coupled together and hauled by one or more locomotives, form a train.

Alternatively, some passenger cars are self-propelled in which case they may be either single railcars or make up multiple units.

Containerization is a system of intermodal freight transport using intermodal containers (also called shipping containers and ISO containers) made of weathering steel.

The containers have standardized dimensions.

They can be loaded and unloaded, stacked, transported efficiently over long distances, and transferred from one mode of transport to another—container ships, rail transport flatcars, and semi-trailer trucks—without being opened.

The handling system is completely mechanized so that all handling is done with cranes and special forklift trucks.

All containers are numbered and tracked using computerized systems.

A trailer is generally an unpowered vehicle towed by a powered vehicle.

It is commonly used for the transport of goods and materials.
