Editing Intermodal container (section)

===Creation of international standards===
The first international standard for containers was established by the [[Bureau International des Containers]] et du Transport Intermodal in 1933, and a second one in 1935, primarily for transport between European countries. American containers at this time were not standardized, and these early containers were not yet stackable – neither in the U.S. nor Europe. In November 1932, the first container terminal in the world was opened by the Pennsylvania Rail Road Company in [[Enola, Pennsylvania]]. Containerization was developed in Europe and the US as a way to revitalize rail companies after the [[Wall Street crash of 1929]], in New York, which resulted in economic collapse and a drop in all modes of transport.<ref name="logistica2014a" >{{Cite journal |first=Krzysztof |last=Lewandowski |title= Czechoslovak activity to prepare European norms for containers before the Second World War |journal=Acta Logistica |volume=1 |year=2014 |issue=4 |pages=1–7 |doi=10.22306/al.v1i4.25 |issn=1339-5629 |url=https://www.researchgate.net/publication/270794211|doi-access=free }}</ref>
