[quote user="jeaton"] <P>[quote user="bobwilcox"]Here is a link to the GAO report : <A href="http://www.gao.gov/new.items/d0794.pdf">http://www.gao.gov/new.items/d0794.pdf</A><BR>Suggest all read this and Bob Galamore's report before plowing ahead.<BR>[/quote]</P> <P>In addition to that one should also pay attention to the posting of FM as he has an undergraduate degree in economics from some school that doesn't even show on the charts and a certified genius IQ. </P> <P>[/quote]</P> <P>You might want to differentiate between the growth in import intermodal and the loss of domestic production when you analyze those "reductions" in the less than 300% R/VC rail rates. Import intermodal has no captivity, and has been the largest volume growth sector for railroads - shouldn't suprise you that the 180% R/VC and below catagory has grown.</P> <P>But of course, leave it to Jay to start with the flame war, even after an explicit request not to do so.</P>
