Tom, You are the only person I know who can be given a straight answer to a question, only to claim that the question has not been answered. You ask and re-ask for a connection between the news article and BNSF, (paraphrasing) "'cause the article doesn't mention BNSF, so how do you know BNSF is involved in WATCO's decision to pull up?" Well, for the umteenth time, THE LINE IN QUESTION IS EX-BNSF, SOLD BY BNSF TO WATCO WITH A CONTRACTUAL AGREEMENT THAT ONLY BNSF CAN SUPPLY CARS TO THE LINE'S SHIPPERS. You have to have more the 5 brain cells to make the connection between WATCO's service problems and the fact that BNSF is the sole determinant of what level of service is provided on this line. I assume you have more than 5 brain cells, please don't prove me wrong. You ask and re-ask what the quantity of traffic is on the line in question. I tell you "Usually once a week, 10 to 25 cars at a time." You then ask "How often is 'usual?'" I suppose I should be grateful that you haven't (yet) asked "How often is once a week?" Let me take a wild guess, but are you one of those guys that dials the operator and asks "What's the number for 911"? Just curious. "How long?" I don't know exactly, but it is around 80 to 90 miles from Marshall to Moscow via the ole' P & L. That's why I used the 100 mile figure in the fuel usage example as a rounded up version. I'm just trying to keep it simple for you, Tom. [}:)]
