No, no not the CMNW. Never did business w/that outfit. I have copies of Cargill transit sheets from 1994 which shows the average transit time for flour loads moving from KC to STL on GWWR to be around 94 hrs. If GW couldn't get across the rd, then the loads sat for up to 48 hrs in ESTL until being delivered to CSX for movement to east coast. Of course this is all from way back in the past but hey I love talking rr history compared to modern stuff
