I few weeks ago I was up in Flagstaff. My customer is near the Mainline tracks through Flagstaff.

I noticed a lot of Piggy Back Cars on the trains going through town.

Is Piggy Back service increased? or have I not noticed them before in that quanity?

BNSF through Flagstaff and yes, Pig traffic is up and will go higher in the future without a doubt. Watched a program on TV saying an increase of about 100% was forecast for the near future for the UP and BNSF out of Southern California, south and east. I saw a heavy & steady increase before I retired from UP in '04. Jim
