Re: More Sidings on Coast? Ton Miletis?

Honda and Surf are reportedly going to be put back in service.

Ton mile increases have largely been due to the increase in national coal tonnage. Value has started to creep back up on RR's because of containerization. Saying we're doing better in ton miles, is a long way from saying we're doing what we should be doing. And, this "old head" thinks that the standard US RR justification "we haul the most, so we must be the best" is part of what's wrong with the industry mentality, not what's right.
