[QUOTE="cachsux, post: 1256452, member: 5529"] Dave, we're fighting with everybody. In a way we did this to ourselves. We came up with all these service commitments that eventually couldn't be met by the existing rail system. So we created sleeper teams and such to move trailers faster by road. Our less volume caused the railyards to cut back and have to find other shippers. Then the recession hit cause further cutbacks. As the economy returns they have less equipment and employees so it's not a matter of just calling a driver to come in and jump in a rental truck like we can. They have X amount of space and it is up for grabs. Throw in this years weather. Throw in his years piss poor planning. Now we have late/backed up trailers and still the X amount of rail space. It's the trailer version of going back to a jilted lover and wondering why she won't help us out. [/QUOTE]
