Probably not. The type of operations in Europe are completely different from North American ones. G&W already knows how to create a profit running trains in Australia and Europe, so they will probably do a very good job with this new business. Good luck to them.

G&W's stock price jumped by almost 7% today on that good news. Maybe the class 1s have missed the boat here..

Gotta unlock them operating synergies. I love corporate speak.
