    You do realize the amount of extra track and train, you would need to offset the use of freight trucks on highways don’t you, let alone the increase in smaller box trucks as well.?

    I am simplifying a little but that is how the trucking industry started because rail was not able to keep up with demand for goods logistics.

      Pretty sure it’s because we stopped investing in rail and started subsidizing trucking instead.

      You do realize that rail is vastly more effecient to move goods than frieght trucks don’t you?
