    It's usually fairly consistent but anything can happen in this economy. Most of the freight I nab there is just a wee South of the 49er T/S. West Sactown over the river in the commercial/industrial zone. If not there's all that other zone up in near Dunnigham (a stone's throw North) and Woodland (just West of the 40 Whiner zone) too so usually there's no real need to go empty for very far.
