Something strange is indeed going on.
If what they want is an outlet for PRB coal, there are better place to haul it. If they want to reconstruct a line for the job, the Modoc line as a shortcut to Coos Bay would seem to make far more sense. Shipping via Eureka has all sorts of unknowns, beginning with the trashed remains of the railroad and continuing on through port improvements that are no slam-dunk. A $billion and change is only a down payment on what's needed.
So something stinks in this. Not sure what it smells like, except that for now it's unpleasant.
