I ran into this article yesterday, and was shocked to see it listed as a good article. What's wrong with it? Well, this article was promoted in 2008 and has not been reassessed since. In that time, it has become more than a decade out of date (there is a "as of 2005" statement in it) and has a number of unsourced paragraphs and subsections. Sections of prose do not meet GA standards for their quality of writing. Inexplicably, the article does not cover Trailer-on-flatcar or Containerization at all, which are significant parts of the trucking industry in the United States. A fair amount of work is needed to bring this back to GA level, especially considering standards for what we consider a good article have increased since 2008.

So, it has been nearly a month and no improvements have been made to the article. How does it get delisted? Trainsandotherthings ( talk) 20:13, 16 January 2022 (UTC) reply
