Ignorant question time.

Quotes from the article:

Quote:
Doug Bosco, a co-owner of Northwestern Pacific, said it was anticipated in 2006, when the contract was approved, that the railroad would soon earn $5 million. But protracted legal battles, which he said have recently been settled, curbed the railroad’s expansion.

Do these "legal battles" all have to do with SMART? Is the "curbed expansion" he refers to about trying to get new sidings installed, or extending the mainline? Were there legal battles surrounding car storage last time that was tried?

Quote:
Bosco said the railroad is profitable, but declined to cite recent annual revenues.

Squeaking by possibly?

Quote:
Both he and McCowen also believe there are major new freight customers to be gained if freight service can be extended from Windsor about 80 miles north to Willits in Mendocino County.

Last time Willits was discussed on this board I did not get the sense from people like Jeff Moore that there was a ton of business up there.
