[quote user="Chris30"] <P>According to the website <A href="http://www.railexusa.com">www.railexusa.com</A> the Washington facility is already open and shipping individual cars until the New York facility is ready to accept unit trains. I read that one of the reasons the Washington facility is open first is to test/train the workers on loading the cars. As long as we're talking about loading, here's a nother picture of a car being loading at the Washington facility (from the Railex website):</P> <P><IMG height=480 src="http://www.railexusa.com/images/trainloaded.jpg" width=360></P> <P>One other thing that I read in one of the press releases is that all cars will remain attached.</P> <P>What I didn't find was any info regarding the date of the first unit train. Based on the latest pictures from the New York facility (9/21/06) it doesn't look like it's quite ready yet.</P> <P>CC</P> <P>[/quote]</P> <P>NOW THIS IS A PURTY LOAD.</P> <P>With the nice clean (Germ free?) floor and intact interior.</P> <P>OUTSTANDING.</P> <P>Not like the crappy boxes ive seen (And that includes shipping containers)</P> <P>Looks like there is alot of product (Onions?) going into that box. I wonder what the tare and gross is for that railcar?</P> <P>MP173, I feel as if I should edit my trucking lesson and just make it short. Im sorry if you felt offended or otherwise put off by my pathetic attempt at cargo schooling. I dont know of any other way to present a scenario regarding trailer or cargo usage.</P> <P>My Boss presented me with three new people this morning and asked me to break em in to thier tasks. They listened to what I taught them reinforced by MY boss and his gospel and all was well. No one got injured or killed and we all got the work done.</P> <P>Cheers.</P>
