The Panama Canal Expansion

• Panama Canal expansion will allow larger vessel passage (expected
completion in 2014)
− Currently can accommodate 4,800 TEU vessels
− Post expansion, Canal will accommodate +13,000 TEU vessels which will
allow for faster all-water times to the East Coast for the more cost efficient
“large vessels” (larger vessels are 30% more cost efficient)

Tremendous Potential From A Single Container Ship Per Day.

Double- Stack Well-Cars In Unit Trains

1 Double-Stacked Well Car Holds 4 TEUs

120 Car Unit Trains Will Be Under 7500 Feet and Will Hold 480 TEUs.
One 12,000 TEU Mega Container Ship = 24 to 26 Intermodal Unit Trains.

PANAMA CANAL ROUTE: PATH OF LEAST RESISTANCE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA (UP, BNSF) SHIFTING FROM LAND-BRIDGE TO REVERSE LAND BRIDGE Price –Inflation Trend: - Alameda Corridor Fees - Environmental Fees OVER-UTILIZED ROUTE: - Captive UP & BN Rail Route - Congestion & Capacity Issues SOUTH FLORIDA ( FEC-JAX-CSX/NS) Price-Stability: - No corridor Fees - No Environmental Fees UNDER-UTILIZED ROUTE: - FEC & Connections to CSX / NS - Surplus Capacity - SB Loaded Export Opportunity |5
  • 6. The Panama Canal Expansion • Panama Canal expansion will allow larger vessel passage (expected completion in 2014) − Currently can accommodate 4,800 TEU vessels − Post expansion, Canal will accommodate +13,000 TEU vessels which will allow for faster all-water times to the East Coast for the more cost efficient “large vessels” (larger vessels are 30% more cost efficient) |6
