Either the railroad gets capacity increased or a lot of money will be spent on the highway. Who is paying for that highway? Where do you get more bang for the buck? Which is best for the environment? How do you help the state's sick economy and plan for the future? If you dump money into more highway (if that is even possible), how much do the trucking companies contribute toward construction and maintenance?

Also, this has nothing to do with passenger trains. So don't bring that up.

Kicking some money toward rail to keep freight moving doesn't sound too bad to me.
