I was looking through the owner reporting marks list. I noticed that a lot of manufacter's own there own rail cars. Is there an advantage to this? Can anyone own a railcar? <br /> Lets say my company makes Hot sauce and Chilli peppers here in Illinios. Ninty percent of my product (about 20 cars a day) are shipped by rail to Texas. (For every true Cowboy hat wearing Texan knows that the Hottest and best Chilli Peppers are grown right here, In Illinios.) Would it be benificial for me to own my own railcars? Are there any advatages to lease? Would I have to buy track somewhere in order to buy these cars? <br /> TIM A
