[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by CSSHEGEWISCH Building excess capacity in advance of possible demand requires a much better crystal ball than most people have. "If you build it they will come" rarely occurs in real life. Also, the bee in futuremodal's bonnet does not create excess track capacity, either. [/quote] Building excess capacity ahead of demand is a concept best borne by the government aka the Interstate Highway System. Much of that system in the West was constructed under the tenet of "better to have it and not need it, then to need it and not have it". If this country is going to avoid a future crisis in electric energy generation, the government is going to have to deal with the obvious and odious drawbacks of the current rail system with regards to coal fired generation, because that's where the bottlenecks are occuring. BTW, "bee in bonnet"? What kind of patsy pastel literature do you read?[:I][:O][*^_^*][D)][zzz]
