There is plenty of track except for the small package, less than a load capacity of trucks and trucks, if properly managed - capacity. The provider will tell you otherwise good, which in their respective niches, the sellers may be restricted, but buyers are safeno. In 1980 there where 20 000 transport companies in North America, today there are over 564 000 ... each with unique cost structures, market share and technology.
