    Same up here in Pennsylvania, 2 days a week. Hard to make ends meet like this, considering parking the truck.

    I just had an interesting conversation with someone I know from church. He works for evergreen and according to the numbers ships are still running full capacity and they're still up year over year in movements.

    Iso work is still moving well
    Atleast with Heniff it is.
    We get a little slow on the tanker side and get sent to help out the Iso side
    And those guys are probably working 14 hr a day

    Problem isn't shipping, its rail. The rains have completely f.... the tracks, some are still underwater, and then, they have to be fixed. On top of all the weather damage (much larger than most seem to think) the rails are changing the way they do business (efficient railroading) this means more and more delays in the near term. Don't expect normalcy till late July and August....

    I can't just do this for two or three more months.
     
    4noReason and ChicagoJohn Thank this.
