but I do know that NS is fed up with the performance of trains 168/169 AKA AYMO/MOAYI'm not sure how a new intermodal yard will improve the schedules of these trains. Currently NS' on-line container cutoff/availability schedule for Albany - Chicago 47th St shows 55-56 hours. By comparison, CSX Q114 goes from Chicago to Selkirk (crew change only - no car drops) in 24 hours. NS cutoff/availability intermodal schedule for Chicago to Buffalo is 31 hours so NS is allowing for scheduled 24 hour transit time Buffalo to Albany.
