My layout and railroad is similar to the LAJ in concept. Say I have a customer that receives a large number of incoming shipments from the Union Pacific which is interchanged to my railroad. Would there ever be a case where we would give track rights to the UP so they could deliver the incoming cars all the way to the customer instead of leaving them at the interchange for us to pick up and deliver? What would be the advantage of us having such an arrangement? Would the UP pay us a fee for using our track?
