That's 15 nuclear power plants that are basically replacing coal fired generation due to *concerns* about CO2 emissions and supposed climate change.</p><p>Who says the global warming scam-a-rama won't hurt railroads?</p><p>BTW - folks, let's keep this one on topic, e.g. how these things relate to the railroad industry, okay?
