Mark in Utah - The ability to recirculate water seems to be able to work just as easily for a closed loop pipeline as in a generating plant, if not easier. The generating plant needs to keep the water clean to keep from damaging boilers, injectors, et al. The coal pipeline water only needs to be purged of things that might block the pumps. There would be an efficiency cost in such a system, the question then is the overall capital cost of a closed loop coal pipeline vs the overall capital cost of new rail tracks. CSSHEGEWISCH - Tell us more about that suburban sprawl in the PRB. You need to get out of the projects once in a while. goat - Of course it was a waste, it was a rail passenger terminal. Could've just as easilty thrown their money away on a buggy whip factory, for what it's worth. I would venture a guess that a new "built ahead" highway, railroad, or pipeline would find it's value rather quickly. JOdom - Read the various offerings of the various TRAINS editors over the years, and tell me which one seems most inclined to "aspire" to the level of a Ted Rall. Then go and wipe the brown off your nose.
