freight/goods traffic Explanation: Swedish: s. freight traffic, goods traffic carrying trade (gå i - ) be engaged in the carrying trade Seems to be scheduled traffic, as opposed to Trampfart: Trampfart (løsfart) - fraktefart med skip som ikke går i fast rute. Svært vanlig i tidligere tider. Den som bedriver trampfart befatter seg kun med godstransport. Trampfartens motstykke er linjefart. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs (2014-03-26 09:20:40 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- slightly different spelling in Swedish: fraktfart |
