What video was it, anyway? I worked for a freight company for a while, and they talked a lot about this system there, too. However, I quit, so I don't know how things turned out. However, I remember LASH eliminates the need for large docks and heavy cranes. A lock ship lifts or drops a loaded barge directly into the water, and the barge moves further down the river to its destination. The LASH barge system is convenient for ports with limited infrastructure because cargo does not get stuck in queues and goes directly to its destination. Gettransport also wrote that this system is particularly effective for transporting timber, though I didn't quite understand why. In short, it's cool, and laziness is the engine of progress.
