Seems based on this article that while there is a backlog of ships to unload there may a shortage of goods to ship this Christmas.

Re: Intermodal Traffic
I would not be surprised. Airports are a mess right now due to shortages and people not wanting to work for them which is just stupid. CSX even has been dealing with crew shortages but honestly CSX brought that on themselves by the lower wages and the company treating their employees like crap. Bottom line is I would not be surprised. Sucks but it is what it is

Re: Intermodal Traffic
Christmas and winter goods should be on the water or landed already.
It's the spring goods that would or should be in process now.
