    I also run out of Chicago intermodal too. I wouldn't say there is a "most used" rail yard. It just depends where the freight is going and where it is coming from. The main rails we use are BNSF and Norfolk Southern, followed by CSX, then Canadian National, and Union Pacific.

    Does JB have their own repair trucks in all the yards? Or do you have to get the container flipped?

    How good is Jb about getting the rail billing in to the rail yards before you get the load the the rail? One company I ran intermodal for I use to have to wait for rail billing a lot. I'm think of making the switch to JBI in May. My wife needs surgery so I can't change insurance until after that.
