Dru, <br />You have made a good point. I agree that in recent months, Trains has had too many articles about Amtrak. In my recent railfan trackside visits, I have only seen one Amtrak train out of 200+ trains. That Amtrak was 6 hours late. I am interested in freight railroads and how they operate. The articles on UP Super RR and BNSF articles on their operations were great. The items about UPS at Willow Springs IL BNSF intermodal ramp on the Trains web site were super. Trains should run some articles on the automotive parts and vehicle business the rails carry. That is a major part of the nations rail freight. <br />Most railfans do not have contact with many Amtrak trains. Freight railroads are where the action is. <br />Amtrak should operate in the Northeast Corridor, the Auto Train and in California and the rest should be eliminated. <br />Let's put the freight back in railroading.
