Question for Michael Sol: <br /> <br />If the modernization of the electrification had taken place, and assuming the Milwaukee was still operating today with that same system, do you have any estimates of what the energy use per ton/mile might have been? Assume for a moment that a modern Milwaukee had built a state of the art shuttle train grain loader in Harlowtown (similar to BNSF's in Mocassin), and had completed the electrification of the "gap" between Avery and Othello. What would be the BTU's per ton/mile (or the ton/miles per 1,000 BTU's)for a Harlowtown to Tacoma grain train, say 13,000 tons per train?
