Way Freight vs Local

What's the difference between a way freight and a local? Tried searching online and the best I could get is way stations
which is for passenger operation's.
 
It's fun to break down a through freight when it arrives in the Hump classification yard inbound receiving track.

Then to hook up a local, to haul the consists to the various runaround passing sidings nearest the clusters of industries ... then let it sit and wait for the local shifter to actually pick them up and deliver them to the numerous industries
