I remember just a short time ago, many businesses were getting away from rail. I know in my area rail deliveries have come almost to a stop. Trucking was the way to go. My area is not a metropolis like Phila, or Pitt but many businesses that once used rail stopped. I can see rail business coming full circle and making a come back. Lancaster before I was born like many other towns had trolleys. The entire system here was removed, now there are advocates pushing for the return of them. I fully believe history repeats itself and we are headed back to the future.
As long as our leaders are on the take from the special interest of big oil I just don't see a change. A change that will make a difference. Alternative fuel sources are needed but the very ones we need to take the reins on this can ill afford severing ties with the pimps they are prostituting for. Until there is a change in culture at the top, the rungs of the ladder will never carry us to where we could go. There is just too much money to be made for those at the top and the dog and pony show is in the theater to stay.
