[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by O.S.</i> <br /><br />Grey, if you're talking profit, and lots of it, I'm on your side 100%. As long as we're not talking another one of these incremental-cost pricing deals, not another "it's just one more move, how hard is that" deals. I'd really like to see the revenue quality on all the existing moves come up before we start combing the bushes for little opportunities here and there. <br /> <br />OS <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />It may be that this particular Minot to Twin Cities move will go by way of Grand Forks rather than the busy Surrey line. If that's the case, then there is available capacity and incremental costing would therefore be appropriate. This was kind of the same approach we used when trying to get BNSF to run RailRunners over Stampede Pass in Washington, there was excess capacity available so why not price the move at a rate where everyone wins?
