In comparison, only about 5 million tonnes of goods were shipped by pipeline in 1974. The number then climbed considerably to approximately 22 million tonnes in around 1995 before staying at this level until 2002.   The volume of cargo transported by water showed a climb from just under 40 million tonnes in 1974 to about 65 million tonnes in 2002, with a small dip in 1998.  Rail freight shipments, which started at a similar level to water shipments, first dropped to roughly 30 million tonnes in around 1995 and then rose to just over 40 million tonnes by the end of the period.
