Thanks for the help so far. This is exactly what I was looking for. I
know if the load changes that would be two separate waybills/cars -
e.g. Coil steel comes into R&RW Metals in a coil car, goes out as
stamped and coated plates in a boxcar.
The trickier one that really brought up this question is where the
steel comes in as a couple of large billets in say a gondola or on a
heavy duty flat, gets coated or treated (lets say within 1-2 days
max), then needs to go to final destination. I would have thought in
this case it might be more cost effective for the parties involved to
pay demurrage for an extra day or two for the car to stick around,
rather than waiting for a new car to come in and also possibly pay the
extra switching charge. But I wasn't sure if that was legal under
tarriff laws in 67/68. So, what's the verdict on this scenario?
