Hi, i read that FEC are hauling wal mart trailers between Jacksonville and Fort Pierce, can anyone tell me how they are loaded/offloaded ?
Could be by yard tractor or big forklift ?
Thanks for any info, Charles.

They use Mi-Jack Craines and or Large Fork Trucks to load and off load trailers from the rail cars.

Thank you very much for the info.

They are loaded by Mi-Jack travel lifts in Bowden and loaded using Mi-jack Piggy Packers in Fort Pierce. Fork lifts are not used

As far as i know they only ship them on a regular run in Florida but if they open up a new distribution warehouse they'll ship a bunch of trailers on a train one way to get them there.
