With the reduction of rail served manufacturing, the railroad is very dependent on trucks for the 'final mile' deliveries.
Trucking understood inter-modal before containerization occurred.alds, Flat Earth Trucker and bzinger Thank this. -

The railroads, air freight, and trucking... all competitors, but yet work together.
The expansion of rail over the last couple decades is a contributing factor in the rates not even keeping with inflation.
Living in an area where rail traffic is very heavy, trains have become something I hate to see. You never know when one is gonna stop, blocking almost every intersection for 2 miles, and sit there for an hour or more. If you're in a truck, in the wrong place, you're stuck, till they decide it's time to move.Tb0n3, alds, Brettj3876 and 4 others Thank this. -

I wonder what would happen if trucking companies started doing trailer switches in the middle of the road? I mean, if one freight hauling business can do it, all freight hauling businesses should be able to. -
PoleCrusher Thanks this.
