671 has already posted another dock bid added another morning shift and brought back 2 men from layoff. Some changes to the dock layout have happened.

Have had a couple of occasions of UE's loading trailers other than velocity, that will end.

Here at 120 I continue to see a full line of strips waiting to be worked everyday from 123 and 135.
Also got information that the city operation is real busy.
Bill count is up 100% over last week!

Glad to see 120 getting some more freight. Seems funny to route freight through terminals that don't have as much space and manpower then take freight away from terminals that do!! But that's how RDWY does things, it seems. 671 is having a problem with UE's working regular freight. Anyone else ran into this?? DS.

Out here on the West side (T-830) We are having the same problem with power. It's hard to run a trucking co. without trucks? What a concept!
