correct but just for the record DGS is Delta's ramp vendor at RIC.
Size of the station isn't necessarily indicative of whether DGS handles certain operations. There are quite a few stations smaller than RDU that are mainline both gates and ramp.

And then there are places like ATL where DGS handles things like wheelchairs. DGS wears many hats.
