The yard shows two ways of doing block container placement while using strads: one way with a single block for multiple lanes (using custom container placement code) and a second way with an individual block for each lane.
The gate has customtransaction code on the GateToYard and custom truck waiting area rack objects to show how you can stage drop-offs and pick-ups from the gate. The custom code is in two user commands in the model.
The rail uses a transfer area to show how you can do staged discharges and loads from trains with strads. The RailPlanner has a customized track work strategy for the staging.
