<p>Hi all. I have seen online that railroads sometimes lease out sections of track to shortlines. I just wanted to know how all that works. How much does the big railroad charge the little railroad? MRL is in a 60 year lease with the BNSF, but how much does the BNSF charge MRL? Is it a monthly, fixed rate, or like trackage rights and the big railroad charges per car-mile over the railroad line? Thanks!</p>
