I have often thought there will ultimately be 2 trans-cons in the US.

RE: The Biggest ship in the World;

 Currently none of the largest container ships can dock at any U.S port due to clearance/draught issues but I know the port of LA/Long Beach is working on dredging and dockage improvements....in the case of the SoCal facilities the superships will benefit the Transcon RR's..
