I think Mr. Knieling of the Integral Trains persuasion believed, and even may have said, that in a proper modern railroad the switcher is the truck. If everything should be containerized, even bulk products (though with the unit coal/etc. trains that have developed since then perhaps not, for larger shipments), then all "retail" operations would be by truck.
