[WAD] Transferring Cargo to Ships

I created a group containing aviation facilities (runway, hangar, etc.), an Ammo Bunker, and an Extra Large Pier with the intention of transferring cargo in a container from a landed cargo aircraft to a ship (this ship does not have aviation facilities). The aircraft lands and transfers cargo easily to and from the ammo bunker's cargo tab using the "Cargo Load/Unload" option under the aircraft ops tab. However, it seems that the ships docked in the pier can only use cargo which is in the pier's cargo tab but not the cargo in the ammo bunker or in any other group members, and I'm not sure if it's possible to transfer the landed cargo from the ammo bunker to the pier. Does this mean that in Cargo 2.0, a piece of cargo can either be transferred by aircraft or ships but never by both?
I'm using v1.05 build 1307 on Steam

Try using HEMPTT and transfer mission to transfer from the airfield to the dock

This worked thanks! Any idea on what to do with the larger (20ft, 40ft, etc.) containers which can't fit on HEMTTs?

Could you move the cargo via train?

I sadly can't find any cargo-capable trains in the database. Neither the "Train (4 Train Cars)" nor "Train (Engine + 3 Train Cars)" can hold cargo.
I couldn't find any vehicles bigger than HEMTT either. HEMTT would work great if it was just a little bigger (see
