[QUOTE="slantnosechevy, post: 533304, member: 21514"] The main reason UPS put more freight on trucks and less on rail a few years ago is because the railroads wouldn't jump when UPS told them to. Railroads gave them fits at CACH Hub in Chicago. Buying CSX would eleminate that problem but would mean a lot less feeder jobs in time. Ups is CSX's largest customer. UPS also has a high theft problem on rail. UPS has an overhead cable system for the trailers that LP says works but haven't implemented it on all trailers yet. I met a LP guy from CSX who told me most of UPS thefts are inside jobs. [/QUOTE]
