Why are unit trains more effient than mixed freight trains?

Well, honey, unit trains are like a well-oiled machine - they're all carrying the same type of cargo, so there's no time wasted sorting or switching cars.

It's like trying to organize a chaotic dinner party versus a streamlined catered event - one's gonna run a whole lot smoother than the other.
