Piggy-backing :-) off of Lou's question about the trailer loads; were (are) railroad trailers subject to the same interchange rules as other freight cars (per diem, return to home road etc.)? Also, occasionally in photos one sees empty flatbeds on TOFC headed west in EL trains, so were empty trailer movements common on the EL and was that predominately westbound?
