The AAR (Association of American Railroads) defines a "terminal and switching railroad" as "A non-Class I railroad engaged primarily in switching and/or terminal services for other railroads" in lists of railroads. A similar definition can be found in their Car Hire Rules (http://www.aar.org/~/media/aar/CarRules/397.ashx).
