    Wow, surprised to see they are actually making it more friendly.

    I figure more and more of them will be going to night moves.

    That's right on the edge - I was in W Memphis a week ago Monday . But you're right suspiciously close to Ohio.

    When are coming out west to my operating area?

    This actually works in my favor most of the time. Most of our super heavy moves are really short (our last move was 300K and 2 miles from rail to plant). I can understand how it would really add up though going all the way across the state though, especially from Memphis to Bristol.

    TN has been slowly making a move to be more friendly to all sorts of commerce. It seems to be working too with all the new manufacturing jobs cropping up.

    Am I reading this correct, our normal load dims are under 12ft wide and under 140,000 and 78ft long can be ran 24/7 ?
