A transportation system and method of operation are disclosed wherein a network of nodes, such as railway stations, are defined between which relays, such as freight trains, are operated at a selected cue frequency to thereby provide regular and predetermined service to each node within the system. The system also includes a procedure for interchanging blocks, such as freight cars, which comprise the relays upon arrival at and for departure at the respective nodes. Scheduling of operating crews for return to their respective node of origin during a normal shift period is also disclosed.
