Statement 1: There are many types of intermodal containers, or freight containers that can be used interchangeably on multiple modes of transportation (highway, rail, ship). Statement 2: Cryogenic liquids cannot be shipped in intermodal containers because they are too unstable for this type shipment. Statement 3: Radioactive material containers are shipped in either Type A or Type B containers.

• A. All Three Statements Are True.
• B. Statement 1 Is False; Statements 2 and 3 Are True.
• C. Statements 1 and 3 Are True; Statement 2 Is False.
• D. Statements 1 and 3 Are False; Statement 2 Is True.

Answer: (C)

Intermodal containers are designed to move across highway, rail, and ship, and there are specialized ISO tank containers built to carry different kinds of liquids, including those kept at cryogenic temperatures. That means cryogenic liquids can indeed be shipped in intermodal containers when you use the appropriate cryogenic ISO tanks, so the claim that they cannot be shipped this way because they’re too unstable is not accurate. For radioactive materials, packaging is categorized to handle varying levels of hazard, with Type A and Type B containers used for most shipments, while Type C is typically reserved for air transport. So shipping radioactive material in Type A or Type B containers is correct. Putting that together, the statements that 1 and 3 are true and that 2 is false align with how intermodal containers and hazmat packaging actually work.
