B&LE to be sold, say it isnt so.......

Oh no, I just learned that CN is working on buying the Bessemer. The only way this would be a plus is if the CN is planning on painting all its fleet in the B&LE ornage and black. Boooo Hooo.

The proposal is definitely on the table, waiting for STB approval. The real question is how long will it be until CN puts B&LE and P&C Dock up for sale. DM&IR fits with the existing CN system to some extent but the other two carriers don't even connect with CN.
