Well, here's an idea. Lets make all the 4 foot, 8 in one half inches ribbons of steel the domain of the federal government, not unlike the interstate highway system. That way, anybody that can scrape up enough money for a couple second-hand SD-40-2's <br />can get out there and move some freight for a profit. <br /> Just kidding, that would never work. Or would it? Not that much different than the modern trucking industry. And I'm certain that the rail customer would benefit from the competitive marketing. Just think of the variety of paint schemes we would see then, no more "yellow-blues", we might photograph old geeps with candy-apple paint with more shine than the top of my head! And the rails would be a real competitive alternative to the interstate. Of course I'm not likeing the vision of a bunch of "don't waste any money on maintenance" operators out there, there needs to be certain requirements to operate. Safety is the biggest concern. And of course, the operating crew needs to be checked out. <br /> Just some thoughts guys,
