[quote user="snagletooth"][quote user="jclass"] Can Railrunner play a roll in this?  Maritime and domestic containers?<a href="http://www.railrunner.com/">http://www.railrunner.com/</a>[/quote]Uumm, NO. sorry to say, but chassies are the bite in the rear in intermodal. it's difficult to  explain to anyone who hasn't driven boxes.  containers and chassies are a bit difficult, and most container lines and their contract rail and port lines will not allow you to interchange(ei, haul someone elses box on their wheels). And finding chassies in any givin yard can be difficult. I spent many an hour at Corwith finding an NYK, when , in the end, I had to go to Forest park, then later, Bedford to get a chassie. On and on. To many stories. Lift offs at Cicero or Corwith, even Bedford just hold the chassie. APL, HAHAHAHA. NEVER INTERCHANGED with ANYONE. Gator boxes (Motsui, to everyone else) MUST be on a Mutsui, period, but only two rail yards  and one container yard in Chi stored them, even though several rails hauled them. But you had to have a Booking No. just to get a chassie. Great idea, really, but, NO, it would work for boxes, only for road trailers. [/quote]You think that's bad, try getting a light repaired after a failed gate inspection. Makes one feel like Oliver Twist holding the soup bowl asking for "More?" while going around the dozens of others also trying to get out of the yard.
