[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by Junctionfan</i> <br /><br /> I also believe that some of the shortlines will merge with each other if not the class 1s. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />I wonder if there are many shortlines that it would even make good sense for them to merge? (contiguous routes, etc.) <br /> <br />I rally don't know,..but the general impression I have for most of them is as remote, socked away, entities rejected by the class ones for not offering enough potential for volume. <br /> <br />It would be cool to see a modern day Jay Gould type quilt together a buncha spinoffs into a cohesive empire,...but that's gotta be a dream and little else...
