So, can these two different types of trains (RFR and HFR) operate on a common infrastructure?   <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p> And, more importantly, is it really a valid argument that a lighter, faster type of train is needed to handle the lighter, more valuable items; or is this just a myth being perpetuated by people who want to reinvent the wheel, so to speak?   <o:p></o:p> In other words, can the present heavy freight rail operations, if they were simply expanded, handle the additional traffic diverted off of the highways?  Or, do we really need a specialized train for that additional traffic?   The FRA wants to shift the majority of long-haul truck freight off of the highways, and onto rail. So, according to the FRA, what must railroading do in order to accommodate the higher-class, higher value, more time-sensitive merchandise that will be shifted from highway to rail, according to the new policy of the FRA?
