Abstract

For the transloading of loaded goods units (82), such as containers, interchangeable containers, semi-trailers or the like by means of transloading lifting gear (18) from or onto a slowly travelling train (6) formed by container cars (48), there is initially associated with each container car (48) to be unloaded and/or loaded a reference-point (R) the position of which, is continuously measured in relation to a fixed measuring section (40). Subsequently there is measured, in relation to the fixed measuring section (40) in the case of a unit (82) to be unloaded, the position, of at least one load attack point (81 ), and in the case of a unit (82) to be loaded, the position of locating elements (93) of the container car (48). The common center point (85) of the load attack points (81) or of the locating elements (93) in relation to the reference point (R) is computed, the position of the center (86) of the load receiving points of the associated transloading lifting gear (18) is continuously measured in relation to the fixed measuring section (40, 41) and the transloading lifting gear is moved so that its load receiving center (86) coincides with the center (85) of the load attack points (8 1) or the locating elements (93).
