Locomutt.....Don't let your postman linger at the mail box...he may be reading it and forget to slip it in the box....Again, kidding of course. Well lets explain it for the great un-washed. Although the US post office in most domestic cases actually places the magazine in your mailbox, the printer never mails your copy. As the run of the magazine comes off the line, it is palletised to zip regions in the USA. These pallets of trains are than drop shipped via an LTL truck carrier to a post office in the subscriber's region. What LTL carriers are used in this process by Trains and its printer?
