Compare it to how the description of the Bridge over the Seine building is written, and it's easy to make this mistake.
Both entries use the word "goods"
The player may sell as many goods as he wishes. He receives 1 Franc for each upgraded good and 1 Franc for any combination of 3 standard goods (they may be the same or different goods).

Yes, but the ship entry dictates specific quantities, while the bridge says "as many goods as he wishes." So I don't see where the confusion comes from.
The last sentence of the example "A player may ship several of the same good or different goods on a single ship." clarifies that they're not talking about stacks of goods but individual tokens. This should have been in the description of the building, not in the example of how it was used. Had they put it into the description, I don't believe we would have been confused about the building. That's all I was pointing out.
You're reading it and mentally inserting meaning that isn't actually there. It says X number of goods. A good is a good. A good is not a stack of goods. A good is not a type of goods. A good is a single, solitary good, and there's no reason to think otherwise. That's all I was pointing out. :)
It's now stated this way (emphasis mine).
The player pays 3 energy for each of their ships that they want to use to ship goods. Wooden Ships can ship 2 good tokens, Iron Ships 3 and Steel Ships 4. Luxury Liners cannot be used to ship goods. Each shipped meat, smoked fish, charcoal, hide, brick and iron earns the player 2 Francs; each cattle, bread and coal earns 3 Francs, each leather 4 Francs, each coke 5 Francs and each steel 8 Francs.....
