NOTE: Shipments that neither originate nor terminate in the United States (i.e.,
in transit or in-bond shipments) are not included here, although they use the
U.S. transportation system.These shipments are usually part of Mexico-Canada
trade and simply pass through the United States. Merchandise trade data exclude
export shipments valued at less than $2,500 and import shipments valued at less
than $1,250. Individual modal totals may not sum to exact export or import totals
due to rounding.
