This publication presents data on sixty-nine various freight commodities on a current month and year-to-date basis.

This data is more detailed than the weekly carloadings (51-005), which is just a total of tons of traffic loaded during a reference week. The data from 52-001 is aggregated and published in greater detail (320 commodities as opposed to 69) on an annual basis in 52-211.
