The paper addresses the problem of organizing broken rail-water coal transport in the Oder Waterway corridor. The transport model presents the Silesia-Opole Power Plant relation in greater detail. The study takes into account the demand for the fleet and transport costs in various transport variants. The hypothetical demand of the Opole Power Plant for coal was considered, taking into account already implemented shipments (in other relations). The transport model covers detailed aspects of transport, including, among others, the expansion of the port in Opole, advanced dispatching, and the need to create a transport schedule for the entire transport corridor.The European Union, in its provisions regarding transport development [1], mandates an increase in the movement of bulk raw materials in an intermodal system in order to minimize unit external costs of cargo transport.
