How can shippers in these sectors take proactive steps to address these challenges and enhance their relationship with carriers? Do you still see long detention times with a drop trailer program? If you’re a brokerage with a shipper that is known to be a slow loader/unloader, does it fall on the brokerage to try and help that shipper improve their wait times?

Harris Ligon - CEO - Telegraph - Chicago, IL Earnings: Many contingencies: reliance on volume, steady-state employment, and improved service product. Much remains to be seen if revenue can perform well even against tough comparables.  Limited rail asset availability: Comparing this to a period of airliner rationalization during COVID; reducing available, worn railcar capacity for scrap and more discipline regarding future orders. Big implications for automakers Service performance remains steady: Despite a recent downtick WoW in train speeds across most rail networks, we are seeing fairly normalized railcar cycle times and intermodal unit availability.
