DME would have to reduce costs in order to secure the freight. Downward spiral on rates and returns. <br />--<snip-- <br />Dont sell this report short. There is probably more truth to it than you believe. Look at the route maps of the railroads, look at the locations of the power plants that use the coal and then ask yourself...how is that coal going to get to market? <br /> <br />ed <br /> <br />[/quote] <br /> <br /> <br />That is the reality of the matter, to be sure. <br /> <br />For DM&E to grow the needed business, the only way they can do so is to undercut the competition, price wise. <br /> <br />With that monumental debt load, surrendering revenue potential becomes a kiss of death.
