The trucks have a fuel sticker to pay use tax for using the public highways maintained by the goverment. They pay fees for the number of miles run in each state. The railroads maintain their own track, so they do not have to pay any mileage tax to the states. <br />The transcon railroad will not put trucks out of business, but will allow railroads to compete better with the nation wide truck companies. <br /> <br />Interesting topic on the paint schemes after such mergers. Would the UP keep its long running paint scheme? What would happen to the flashy warpumpkin and warbonnets from BNSF?
