Seems to me, one of the better bets would be to go with boxcars. <br /> <br />Most other specially designed cars seem to be limited in where they can go and obviously what they can carry. <br /> <br />[quote]QUOTE: <br />I know that at one time in the past cars needed to be returned to their home road, but I'm not sure when that practice ended. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Assuming that your boxcar could go anywhere in the North American Boxcar pool, I suppose it would be more likely to be in revenue service more often, no dead-heading to it's destinations. <br /> <br />I'm gonna have to take a look at that article you mentioned big boy - I just gotta find the issue [:)] <br />
