[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by OldArmy94</i> <br /><br />It seems our highways are becoming more and more congested with trucks. My commute is generally pretty pleasant with the exception of those darn 18-wheelers clogging up things. I know they aren't going anywhere but I sure as heck hope that shippers will go to rail--giving me more trains to watch AND freeing up the interstate for my unfettered cruising! :) <br /> <br />As an aside, does the recent rise in fuel costs make shipping by truck a less desirable option? Consolidating freight into rail shipments may help offset some of those costs for companies. I dunno, though. Any experts in fuel costs vs. modes of shipping? <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />[#ditto]
