[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by jabrown1971 Cheaper and quicker by truck? Used to take cars a week just to reach the INRD from CR at Avon (Indy) yard. If the car arrived from the east, Cleveland, it would get dropped at Avon, sorted and blocked to go to Hawthorne, ex PRR, Yard. At Hawthorne, it would get switched and switched and switched until it found the right cut. Then it would head for the INRD. Once the car got out of Hawthorne, it took 20 mins to get to us. Conversly, if a car arrived Monday on the IC at Newton, by Wednesday it was at it's customer in Indy. Unless the customer was on CR. [/quote] I've seen lots of rail car wheelsets traveling by truck. I suppose it is quicker, but you would think even if it took a week longer by rail, it would still be cheaper.
