[QUOTE="Feeders101, post: 1238830, member: 43542"] The Dallas Hub and the whole metroplex hubs are a complete cluster. We shut down friday only because we had no power to the building. Our biggest problem is the new million square foot Amazon warehouse that just went live. I guess that wasn't in their peak plan. smh They are running those Amazon loads first and foremost and catch up on everything later. They had to rent two lots down the street just to put loads on. We probably have 200+ loads sitting at 3 rail yards. We have no empty's to do CPU runs. Been using Swift 53' for CPU's or rail trailers. You can't drop a trailer on the yard. We've been dropping them in front of outbound doors, until they start moving some of these to the other lot. I pulled a night load back from the rail yard Tuesday, it was still sitting on the same pad Friday when I left. Last I heard we have a 1,000 loads sitting in the Metroplex (6 hubs). I think we have more contractors on the yard than we do feeder drivers at this point. Next week should be interesting...... [/QUOTE]
