The average Joe stopped at that rail crossing has no idea, and could care less that the double stack, grain or tank car blocking his progress is an important link, in the manufacturing and economic chain that is of essential importance to his/her lifestyle. <br />It's got to be tough for railroad pr. (are there any?) men to put a positive spin on things when the public perception of a railroad is that of a nusience blowing their horns at night and keeping him/her fom getting to that next red light quicker. <br />But let there be a wreck or strike...well we don't hear about strikes much any more, so another kind of major service disruption usually makes the news. <br />Amtrak doesn't even advertize much any more <br />Jimmy
