^^So I'd retire early??OK :thumbsup: Sounds like it'll replace regular route stuff though, Yellow, UPS,etc, you know, union jobs.

As far as what I do? It's pretty efficient like it is, hundreds and hundreds of individual freight loads moving across the country, you know, trains.

But if you really want me to retire, I did buy a new boat this year :thumbsup:

The BN and CP barely have a presence of personal in any of their yards anymore, it's all contracted out. The day to day operations are all run by non union personal, even some of the track and car repair. You actually think these conglomerates want anything to do with small time loads going in and out of the yards :dunce:

If they do, don't worry about me, part of being in business for yourself is being able to adapt. There's always opportunities.
