Is the government forcing all the major railroads to sell, won't this create a rail monopoly out west? The government is not likely to allow any mergers much less UP to BNSF! Texas was the only state that was it's own country before it joined the United States. Because of that, Texas was granted special privisions in cases, like this particular merger,where a Texas law that was on the books before they joined the union supercedes any subsequent federal law that might disagree with that law. That's why we all carry sidearms. We could do it before, so why not now? m Sorry to burst the bubble of all Texans, my nephew included, but California was briefly an independent country (about six months or so) during the beginning of the Mexican War and that fact is still advertised on their state flag.

I can't wait to see that retro UP special paint job on engine 2005 (to protect the licensing issues). You know what they say about Texas... everything is bigger - including the rumors Somebodies HO railroad has gotten way out of control, CC
