I was told a true story by a local sawmill owner here in S. Oregon on the Siskiyou line. Years ago ,he ordered a new forklift from back East. Let's say Chicago,to be delivered to his lumber spur by the trusty SP. He traced it's progress by phone calls[this took place 40 years ago]. It was supposed to be a transit time of 4 weeks from East to Spur. It ended up in varios yards for a week at a time, Eugene being the final one. SP promised it would be delived in one week. 8 days later it went[much to his surprise]] by on the EUMEM [Eugene to Medford Manifest ending up there.[ his mill is 90 miles North] 2 days later it showed up at his spur. 7 weeks transit time cooked the SP's goose, he then switched to and now shipes by truck!
