It's better than Dew droppings.

Every now and then you'll see an OD van find it's way on to a railcar among the legions of MultiModal vans, Union trailers and mega's. So it isn't unheard of, just uncommon.I have seen OD city P&D drivers dropping and picking at the UP ramp so what's up with that ?

No different than us....we send a boat load of freight to Florida with very little coming back in comparison to tonnage, and the same goes for the Northeat Region...we get a fraction of the freight back that we send up.
The PT's that we send up to eastern Pa./Conn. deadhead over to Mass. and pull another truckload coming back for a different customer.

I think almost everybody does it that way, we've got a bunch of runs out of ATL to ORL.Last I knew we ran 6 empties out of FL for every load coming out. We do a lot of FL out of ATL, all the FL freight from 2/3 of the country gets dumped in there and we direct load as much of it as we can.

I've had to deadhead out of Tampa with an empty set all the way to ATL in the past. There's nothing coming out of there.
OD puts stuff on the rail just in JB Hunt containers.
Our company underwent a complete revamp of our linehaul system a few years ago. You will not see OD freight on the rail or on purchased transportation.OD puts stuff on the rail just in JB Hunt containers.

I'm sure there's a code that can be applied and everything will be fine.We had a pt guy stroll in this morning 6 hours late with a 53 full of priority freight that was supposed to be delivered today.
Oh dear, no rail and no PT?Our company underwent a complete revamp of our linehaul system a few years ago. You will not see OD freight on the rail or on purchased transportation.
OD runs teams. That's how they compensate for not using rail or PTS.
Teams are an excellent idea on paper. In practice they can be difficult to find. Two people have to put up with each other for a week. Most truckers can't be around each other five minutes without complaining about something.
I heard there could be a break up of the infamous Team BRG-Wong of CRST. Wong may join OD. Hmmm...the new team of the decade...Team Song-Wong......or would it be Wong-Song?? I dunno.....but I'm hungry for Chinese now for some reason...Yes, to a degree. But a lot of our long haul freight relays through our network. We load to the farthest break point and keep it moving.
