The rocky ride that the freight rail carload and intermodal segments have experienced over the last couple of years appears to continue due to reduced demand, lower volume, inflation, and a host of mixed economic indicators. However, there are signs of optimism emerging in these vital segments, such as solid pre-pan-demic volume comparisons; signs of improved service; a decent amount of excess capacity ready to be sprang into action as volumes eventually trend up; and the potential for increased technology innovation that would certainly yield operational gains. |
