You're welcome, Leo. 

I'd say changes stemming from Caterpillar's Plant-With-A-Future (PWAF) plant
modernization project of the late 1980s and early 1990s could have
influenced a shift to more truck transportation. 

Btw, you mentioned inbound parts by RR...any details? I'm curious if
Caterpillar sent boxcar loads of engines and transmissions from its
P&PU-served East Peoria plant to Montgomery via CB&Q, at least in the early
years of the facility.

>The video brought back some memories. We had one day in 1974 where we left
CAT with over 60 loads of machinery.

>The 5-8 outbound car pattern I mention started at least 20 or so years ago
so it's not related to the current production slow down or product shift.
