Some of the key benefits to the grain producers are the efficiencies—again, a 23% increase in capacity. There is greater efficiency and performance across the entire supply chain. There's a lower carbon footprint for the sector.
As Mr. Aziz mentioned, the gross rail load is the maximum load that can be moved on rail, combining the empty weight of the railcar and the lading weight of the payload. Our next-generation fleet provides for a 9% increase in the gross rail load. The cars can be up to 4,000 pounds lighter than the existing fleet. That translates into a carrying capacity or load limit of the car that adds an additional 27,000 pounds more grain. There's an increase in cubic capacity of 15.5%. On a train-start basis, there will be nine additional cars in every train start.
These are significant improvements.
