Michael, <br /> <br />Should we post the next gem regarding BNSF vs Montana, or should we wait awhile longer? <br /> <br />Aw, what the hay, here it is..... <br /> <br />http://missoulian.com/articles/2006/03/19/business/biz_05.txt <br /> <br />gist - "Gov. Brian Schweitzer said he's going to ask lawmakers next year for money to sue the federal government for failing to protect Montana's grain farmers from price-gouging by railroad monopolies like BNSF Railway." <br /> <br />What is remarkable about this one is that it has the likelyhood of other states jumping on board. If Montana sticks to it's guns, we'll finally have a legal rendering of whether the STB was neglegent in enforcing the erstwhile competition caveats of the Staggers Act. <br />
