I see where the TOFC numbers are double those of COFC in the latest AAR stats. Although the common wisdom is that TOFC is passe and most new intermodal growth will be in containerization, I am wondering if the market potential for TOFC is actually greater than that for COFC (possibly due to a growing shortage of ocean containers, new markets for roll on/roll off type trailers i.e. trailers not reinforced for lift on lift off handling which are something like 70% of the trailers out there). <br /> <br />Also, how are RoadRailers and/or RailRunner trailers counted? I would think RoadRailers would be counted in the TOFC stats, but since RailRunner is a container on bi-modal chassis operation would it be counted as COFC or TOFC? For that matter, how are containers on chassis on flatcars counted?
