Why? <strong><u>Weaker demand, a competitive truck market<\/u><\/strong> and a shift in U.S. port activity away from the West Coast to East and Gulf ports that utilize shorter inland hauls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Intermodal\u2019s ability to compete with trucks has steadily eroded since the second half of 2022, and that will persist through the middle point of this year, according to Todd.&nbsp; Todd further said \u201cIntermodal will have an uphill climb relative to truckload in terms of attracting volume, and this just piles on in addition to the port shifts that call for more short-haul than long-haul movements.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That market environment favoring trucks could result in better pricing for rail shippers, but it remains to be seen how much the railroads are willing to respond to that pricing pressure, especially given higher operational costs following the new labor agreement, he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><u>Todd in a telephone conversation with PFL is bearish on service<\/u><\/strong> at the class 1\u2019s improving in the short term even though more staff has been added as he expects more early retirement and the workers being hired now don\u2019t seem to stick around that long.&nbsp; \u201cWe definitely saw some progress on the hiring process, but it took the first half of the year to get where they <strong><u>were just treading water,\u201d Todd said.<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><u>Poorer service will lead to more rail cars on the system<\/u><\/strong> than needed because of bad turn times which is something that shippers seem to be getting used to,&nbsp; but of course don\u2019t like.&nbsp; Makes for a tight railcar market \u2013 <strong><u>good for the car owner \/lessor not so good for shippers<\/u><\/strong> for obvious reasons.&nbsp; If service does improve expect to see more rail cars sent to storage!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><u>Meanwhile, the Federal Railroad Administration is warning class 1\u2019s that it will take action if they fail to adequately address deficiencies in their training, qualification and certification programs for train crews.<\/u><\/strong>&nbsp; In a January 5th letter to the top executives at the seven class 1\u2019s and Association of American Railroads, FRA Administrator Amit Bose noted that some changes made to training, qualification and certification programs have not adequately addressed the deficiencies the agency identified in audits of those programs.&nbsp; <strong><u>Bottom line is, Class 1\u2019s under a lot of pressure to perform and to increase staff, but do it safely and get America rolling in full force.&nbsp; Stay tuned to PFL.<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><a><\/a><strong><em>We Were at MARS in Chicago Last Week<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><u>MARS this year in Chicago was an incredible conference and PFL was a proud sponsor.&nbsp; Official registration was 951 people,<\/u><\/strong> but there was way more hanging around in the lobby \u2013 locals just there for meetings.&nbsp; PFL was there in full force with Curtis Chandler, David Cohen and Brian Baker in attendance and we had a very busy table in the exhibition hall.&nbsp; <strong><u>All shippers at the conference were focused on service of the class 1\u2019s<\/u><\/strong> and turn times.&nbsp; Folks, it was the same old same old \u2013 no specific promises from the class 1\u2019s bottom line but all claim they are doing what they can.&nbsp; <strong><u>People were there to do deals<\/u><\/strong> \u2013 seemingly everyone has something going on and have 2023 objectives that need to be met.&nbsp; <strong><u>For more information on MARS contact PFL today.<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><a><\/a><strong><em>We Continue to watch Natural Gas and Freeport<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><u>Natural gas continued its decline last week closing out the trading week at $3.174 per MMBTU at Henry Hub.<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><u>Freeport LNG\u2019s shut-in 2 BCF per day LNG export facility in Texas started receiving natural gas from pipelines over the Martin Luther King Jr holiday weekend<\/u><\/strong>, according to data from Refinitiv, a possible sign the plant is finally moving closer to exiting an outage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><u>The last time gas flowed to Freeport was in late December<\/u><\/strong> when the plant was using the fuel to maintain a flare system.
