Thanks for the reply Kenny... Valid point about the crossing in Palouse... Pretty “weak” excuse on WSDOT’s part, that there are no customers in Washington....?? The product off the WI&M has to go through Washington to get to market... Interstate Commerce....!!! Wonder if WATCO is behind some of this, forcing Bennett’s to truck to Clarkston and rail out the GRNW...?
