Todd Tranausky discusses what's happening now in the rail carload space.
This Q&A response from The FTR Experts came from our September State of Freight - Rail & Intermodal webinar. View the video and the key takeaways below.
Key Takeaways:
- Carloads are about 30K lower each week than the typical expectation for this time of year.
- While coal is a large part of these lower volumes, economically sensitive freight such as lumbers and metals makes up a third of it.
