Hi Red Flasher - not a dumb question at all. As noted above, later in the week tends to be the heaviest time for intermodal loadings. The trains move later in the week and over the weekend. Deliveries from the ramp to the customer are heaviest Mon - Tues. <br /> <br />Therefore the way it plays out... if I load my trailer / container on the train on Thurs, it can ride the train Fri, Sat, and Sun, and can be half way across the country ( on a Santa Fe "Z" train) by Monday morning. So if I loaded it Thurs and its delivered Monday morning, that's the 2nd <i>business</i> day, A.M. later. That's very competitive with a solo over-the-road transit, but cheaper.
