- Intermodal
- This segment experienced consistent growth with a temporary setback in 2020. Starting from 2,452 million USD in 2017, revenues peaked at 2,893 million USD in 2018, slightly decreased in the following two years, and rebounded strongly in 2021 to a new high of 3,163 million USD, marking the highest value in the observed timeframe.

A partial recovery to 1,310 million USD occurred in 2021, although levels remained well below the initial years.
- Revenues by Major Commodity Group (Aggregate)
- The aggregate revenue across all major commodity groups reflected an overall decline in 2020, dropping from 11,296 million USD in 2019 to 9,789 million USD, likely due to adverse external factors affecting multiple segments. A recovery is observed in 2021 with revenues increasing to 11,142 million USD but not fully reaching the pre-2020 peak.
