I have watched the ATRR start up the CSX sub Gadsden,AL to Birmingham, Al and Gad to Guntersville, AL . Omnitrax won the bid to operate this branch and called it Alabama and Tennessee River Railroad (ATRR). Seeing what it takes to start up in experienced men and equipment and the pressure on all involved, I can't imagine any entity except those already established with short line operational experience being able to take on a new venture, and even then the success (bottom line) is not for sure. <br /> <br />wboatner <br />
