Um.....Salad Bowl Express no longer really exists. 94 was actually taking around 168 which is really no better than standard conventional. Don't forget, this is a UNIT train so no humping, switching etc., and 120 hrs builds in a little extra time. UP is considering just a crew change in Chicago so UP motive power may come all the way to S. Schenectady. Inspections and light repairs will be handled by our motive pwr group and we will deliver an empty, brake tested train ready to go back to WA within 24hrs of arrival. Trucking would still be integral obviously on both ends of the system. It is not our intention to put trucking out, but simply allow the driver to go home to his own house every night (or 2) for dinner. I've been in the produce wholesaling biz for 22 yrs, 5 days is MORE than competitive, and our finished delivered product will be cheaper. Currently, only way from WA in 5 days is team truck (2 drivers) at about 9G's these days. That's a lot of freight savings to be passed on.
