grizz, don't think weather has played much of a part in shipment reductions,this is the NE. only real differance this year is the southern part of the NE,got more snow the the northern part usually gets. and bad accounts should have been weeded out by now.it's just shy of a year we have been doing the holland/npme thing. at camp hill,where most of your loads come into, our bill count has dropped from , highs of 1500+ down to around the 800's give or take nightly. not a whole lot more than we had before the full interline deal started. balt.is down to 3-4 loads a night, the other terminal you ship direct to.at it's peak it was at least 10+ loads a night. personaly,think it just shows , wall street and the gov't,just keep on lying about how the economey is comeing back,but i won't go there. while some of our terminals have seemed to have p/ued freight wise, judged by the amount of road men they have been useing lately, it seems to be happening in our NE area.good for us, thats what we do overnight in the NE. i don't beleive anything is being done differantly, that would effect amount of shipments you are getting lately, think it just shows how far away we are from the economey we were use to in the years past.
