[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by futuremodal</i> <br />Reminds me of the time long ago (well, four years ago) when I was involved in trying to arrange a dedicated single stack container service between Yakima and Puget Sound over the little used trackage over Stampede Pass. Everything was a go, but BNSF said no. No explanation given. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />The sting of competition from another northern transcon railroad would wake up the sales and marketing people at BNSF. Imagine another competing railroad run by young agressive people saying to the growers and the Yakima shippers you mention, "sure, we <u>can do</u> that for you!" Competition is what's absent in the railroad landscape today.
