[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by dharmon</i> <br /><br />So is having all the shortlines coming under parent companies (G&W, RailAmerica, etc...) a good thing or a bad thing? Seems it gives them a better chance at survival by having a larger organization, but at the same time, puts them under a larger organization with it's inherent issues. <br /> <br />Dan <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Dan - <br /> <br />Its like anything else. The good holding companies like G&W are well managed and financed and they do well. Bad ones, don't. This acquisition is G&W buying out Rail Management, which is a sizable group of short lines itself and politically quite influential. <br /> <br />LC
