Trains

We have Satria founder and CEO, Sarit Tamir, joining us on how her company is using cameras warehouses already have to catch problems before they cost real money.

Then of course, it is Wednesday, it is Trains Intermodal day.

So we have Bill Stevens, the, uh, editor of Trains Magazine, here to bring us the latest weekly rail traffic numbers.

And we also have Freight Waves' own Adam Wingfield, who has been a rather loud skeptic of the Tesla's Semi, joining us to share, uh, what he got right and what he might have gotten wrong after he got to go out and actually see and drive a loaded Semi, a Tesla Semi, earlier this week or last week.

So we've got a great show, uh, ahead of us and lots of really good topics.

Book a top demo at repower.com today.

Welcome back to Freight Waves today.

Uh, it's favorite time of the week, wouldn't miss it, and here to talk about the AAR weekly report, this is the traffic report, tell you how the industrial economy's doing, is our own Bill Stevens, or Trains Magazine's own Bill Stevens.

We get the AAR rail data.

We're gonna have Bill Stevens, the editor of Trains Magazine, in today.

Not in studio, but talk about, uh, give us the update on the rail volumes.

It's always an important metric because it tells us what's going on in the, particularly the industrial economy.

It's a great thing.

Well, Bill, we'll have to debate this later.

Uh, I know you are a pro, as you should be as a Trains Magazine editor, uh, pro-passenger rail, so you'll have to bring the counterarguments.

I have a hard time thinking economically it makes sense.

Ytronix delivers operational insights that help managers spend less time chasing information and more time solving problems, because better tools help people do their best work.
