Okay here...Intermodal Yards and Satilite Stations outside of major citys have worked before.. <br />Lorton VA for the Autotrain and Richmond VA on the RF&P line. By having intermodal terminal as starting points there is room to load automoblies as well. By tacking on Passenger cars on The New York Central Mainline(CSXEXCONRAIL) behind Piggybacks service increases could be had on that line between Intermedary stops such as Syracuse,Rochester,Buffalo,Cleveland,Toledo,Ext. without train conflicts. Perhaps you can have the Lakeshore even tie up with a Intermodal train on its rear with engines and all and have distributed power.
