Synopsis

This book clarifies various terms used in freight tariffs. Used by railroad companies and shippers, these terms often have several meanings and must be clearly defined. There are two categories of these terms: those defining territorial areas, and those referring to specific technical applications. The author focuses mainly on geographical terminology which in turn is divided into two sections. The first deals with territories assigned to specific freight associations. The second defines territories that have varying freight rates. The book denotes the importance of precise terminology when discussing international commerce.
