Please don't make prejudiced statements like that, especially since you have zero understanding of my "political sentiments".Why shouldn't I make such statements? Given your tendency to call Republicans "liberals", it's presumed that you're one of the few actual hardcore traditionalists that exist out there. But not perfectly. Also, their micromanaging style with respect to railroads keeps so much freight traffic off the rails. It's not so much micromanagement, as simply a choice note to ruin the passenger railway experience for freight traffic. As the open access operators and multi-system locomotives come on line and provide alternatives to state owned carriers and barriers at the frontiers are removed, along with increases to capacity, freight is growing in Europe. Mind you, it's still going to be easier in some cases to float what one is shipping via the ample waterways, or if the distance is short enough, to continue using trucks. |
