An economic integration has created a great opportunity for cross-broader trade among their members. Thai government implemented a plan to upgrade infrastructure such as dual-track rails and intermodal transport system. Intermodal transport system provides the advantage for shippers in term of cost and flexibility. Another benefit for intermodal is to avoid the transportation network disruptions and uncertainties. A route selection for intermodal freight transport is very important under unforeseen events. A mathematical model for the routing selection of commodities freight. A goal programming is formulated to minimize conflicting objectives such as transportation cost, penalty cost for either early or late delivery, and time variability. The disruption scenarios in intermodal transportation links is addressed and analyzed by using a case study in Thailand.
