Intermodal freight transport Standardized shipping containers are used to go from trains to ships and vice versa.
Wendy Streitparth Apr 17, 2014:
I would have thought this was the same as carga und descarga - unless the train itself is being loaded onto a ship. I would only use embark and disembark in relation to aircraft and ships (or possibly space craft!) when it is referring to cargo.

boarding and exiting procedures

As I understand it, your text refers to all the procedures for putting things on trains and taking them off (cargo, passengers, etc), but not transporting them.

Although 'disembark' appears to be correct for 'desembarcar', I would use 'boarding and exiting procedures'.

Embark: Go on board a ship or aircraft:

Disembark: Leave a ship, aircraft, or train:

La solución Barcelona (también llamada solución española) es la operativa, principalmente usada en ferrocarriles metropolitanos, consistente en el uso de dos andenes simultáneamente para la operación de embarque y desembarque de un mismo tren para reducir el tiempo de operación en la estación y aumentar la velocidad comercial de las líneas; son necesarios 3 andenes, dos laterales y uno central entre vías.

Travel South Yorkshire is proud that the majority of train stations in South Yorkshire are accessible to all, many with a wealth of on-site facilities. If you need help boarding or leaving the train, please contact our welcoming station or train staff who will be happy to help.

If a type 8 vehicle is not available in the train set that you wish to board, you can board the high-floor green line train using a mobile lift or mini-high platform. This page will discuss the boarding procedures for both low-floor and high-floor trains.

As you're boarding, the Motorperson will ask for your destination. Let him/her know where you plan to exit the train so that they can assist you in exiting at your destination.

Here's an example from Australia for 'boarding and disembarking':

Passengers travelling in a wheelchair can board or disembark Tilt Train services via a fold out ramp, which is kept onboard. Please note that unfortunately wheelchair access is currently not available on other Traveltrain services.

IMHO, embarking and disembarking refers to passengers, rather than freight.

Suggestion:
"las *operaciones de embarque y desembarque*, carga y descarga.."
-> "passenger movements, loading and unloading operations..."
