NOTES
Truck: Data represent the number of truck crossings, not the number of unique vehicles.
Rail: Data on the number of rail cars was not available for all ports on the U.S.-Canadian border. The number of trains has been used instead. Table 6-5b does contain data for the number of rail cars on the U.S.-Mexican border.
