Within the last 5 years I read in Trains about a railroad in the Chicago area which was a "TRANSFER" railroad. It was the railroad which received complete consists (cars) from other railroads, transferred them to local industries, picked up cars from local industries and then made up consists for these railroads to take out over their own routes. Thus each railroad was not required to have there own large yard. <br /> <br />Any information as to which issue this was in, what the name of this transfer railroad is and other data will be appreciated. <br /> <br />Thanks, <br /> <br />Sandy Friedfeld
