The Brunswick yards near Harpers Ferry is what.. 8 miles long>? <br /> <br />Stacking a 18 mile train will create an unacceptable 30 minute delay as it rolls thru town at 70 mph. <br /> <br />I can see it if individual freight cars have onboard control systems and can generate thier own power for thier own traction motors and they can probably join and leave a consist at will as it passes thru various points that is best routing for the cargo within the freight car. <br /> <br />**Eyes the coffeepot and throws it into the sink. Suspect something might have settled it too much today.
