ouengr you hit the nail on the head in regards to the longer and heavier trucks. In regards to local distribution centers I think Railroad owned warehouses were once commonplace in the 1950s and 60s. Maybe someone here knows why so many were closed, but my guess would be due to labor costs and things of that nature. In the town of my birth (Eugene Oregon) espee had such a place and now it's an automobile wrecking yard. I agree that railroads need a break in fuel and property taxes as long as it's being used to lay tracks, buy locos and rolling stock as well as train personell. <br /> As far as the capacity issue my big idea was equall parts wishfull thinking and attempting to be practical minded without knowing all the geographical specifics of the ROWs in question.
