[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Mookie One last one - this is a little tougher. [?] I read the article about UPS going to UP. Then I read that most of UP's route west of KC is single track - while BNSF is multiple track. AND....UP has trackage rights over BNSF between KC and Chicago as a result of a grant to SP, on condition of BNSF merger, and SP was bought by UP. Are you still with me? So....being a conspiracy buff to an extent - does BNSF have to be really nice to UP and not "mess" with trackage rights - under the table, of course. Behind the scenes type of thing. Am I just reading too much Tom Clancy? I know in business how power struggles go on each day! Even here on a very small scale. Well, I think you all know where I am on this one. Any opinions out there? Ed, this should get you back on your puter! Jen [/quote] Ask an ex Milwaukee Road employee or railfan their opinion of BN (warning--stand at least an arms reach from them). I have read comments from some of them. Many claim BN did play dirty tricks to topple M R. I really don't know other than what I have seen written and heard spoken. Maybe Ed could shed some light on this one. If so great, and if not, well that is ok too. This one may be too far out and away from his playpark for him to want to play.
