Rail is most competitive when we're talking about long-haul shipments. The number that we use often in the industry is about 500 miles. So if it's shorter than 500 miles, it will be very difficult for rail to compete with truck. In the instance I referred to, the shipper was actually using truck to get onto the rail network, but at a point much further down than their actual physical location.
