How Will the Merger Impact Carload Shipments?

Why it matters: Claims about moving trucks off highways may not benefit carload shippers.

This includes:

  • Claims that the merger would divert 2 million trucks per year
  • Emphasis on intermodal growth


The application emphasizes large-scale truck diversion but such claims may not benefit carload shippers.

Ask yourself: Do you ship in intermodal containers, and would these changes actually help your operations?
