Because there is another 3PI (Columbia Rail Intermodal) that is running a similar service over BNSF out of Wenatchee to Seattle last I heard. <br /> <br />[quote]QUOTE: <br />In all "fairness" the produce shippers approached the railroad and demanded a level of service that wasn't possible to add to the existing rail network. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Not possible? What's your source on that claim? Again, we're talking about a service that only has to average 20 mph over a short haul, so it doesn't require every other train going in the hole for it. Only one dedicated train added to the existing rail network. What is your source for the contention that BNSF can't add one more train to the Stevens Pass corridor on a 4 day cycle rather than an 8 day cycle? <br /> <br />[quote]QUOTE: <br />Sorry, I'm just able to read things with an open mind. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />LOLWMCOOMN! You're not presenting the output of an open mind, rather you are just regurgitating the spin from BNSF. <br />
