[QUOTE="cachsux, post: 1256243, member: 5529"] UPS has less pull because we provide less volume than we used to. When the train was 90% UPS we could get them to hold it 10-15 minutes occasionally. Now we're maybe 60%. The rail isn't going to po all the other shippers waiting on our trailers anymore. The yard next door can strip a 1mile long train in 90 min or less. They start at both ends and meet in the middle. What trailer they get to is the one that comes off. By the time it comes to the point of unloading it from a railcar a few extra minutes isn't going to factor in the grand scheme of using rail or road. [/QUOTE]
