Hi railroadman,
It sure looks to me like you are in good company...
My man Warren Buffett has "been workin' on the railroad" too. (
I know. I know. I realize that I am supposed to have a silly crush on Harrison Ford or somebody like that, but.....shameless confession time......for me.....I just love Warren Buffett and I love that he lives in that house that surprises everybody.)
Here is an article from last fall that you might like to read if you have not already seen it. There is a part of this link that says that in the previous year, "Burlington Northern Sante Fe moved, on average, a ton of goods 470 miles on a single gallon of diesel." (That little fact surprised me so much that I read it 4 times.)
