plant switching Explanation: o sugestie The latest innovation is vest-pocket railroads--contract in-plant switching. These mini-railroads--and their number is growing--use non-union workers to switch a shipper's freight cars to and from a nearby rail yard. They also can clean and repair cars and perform in-plant track maintenance. |
