The UP is really cracking right now in terms of backlog and not enough RTEs. <br /> <br />Right now there are so many bulkhead centerbeam flats loaded with lumber backloged on the UP that lumber mills up here in BC are barely getting a tiny fraction of the number of cars they are ordering. <br /> <br />Because of this, for the first time in decades, lumber mills have resulted to sending lumber on the ocean and through the panama canal to the east coast of the states. <br /> <br />Things are BAD.
