Rail volume down for 9th straight month in November | Supply Chain Dive

There’s a great graphic in this article showing the container and carload bookings on rail by month over the last year.

I also was interested by the statement that ag and bulk products, which often go in hopper cars, are down considerably.  The data come from the AAR (American Association of Railroads), an industry group that provides many statistics about railroad operations.
