    The article mentioned peak capacity and you mentioned peak efficiency.

    A lot of difference between the two!

      An Amendment to my Chorus,

      Its a Hey.... Ho.....;

      Farmers bar your doors;


      The railway is on the way;

      To take more and more:

      The railway is on the way;

      To take more and more.

      Good thing the great Hunter... that roams the prairie... taking our grain ... is so articulate in communicating his desire to force his collective railway... into our farms grain bins! !!!

        Speaking to our AORTA President Leo Meyer... Leo informed me that the great Hunter... cancelled over 100 brand new locomotive engines... something like the second day on the job... to "Create Shareholder value".

        I don't buy the line... that the railway are running at peak Capacity.

        If Hunter thinks I was born yesterday...and this this 'Tom Cat' does not have his eyes open yet...

          Get a grip Tom - you were leading the charge to get rid of the best "AIRTRAFFIC CONTROLLERS" you are likely to have with regard to railways.

          Then you are feeling gay?

          Err, that wasn't what we meant when we said Harper came out of the closet.

            Hunter actually is little more than an impotent puppet. The real villain is William Ackman, Harrison's puppet master.

              Not sure if sitting at home not eating will get much attention. But if you were to go hand cuff yourself to the employees gate at the Ogden yard you would get the media there I am sure. Good on you!

                Remember watching the ackman/Harrison drama unfold "bringing a guy in who knows how to run a railroad" and Chinese/toronto shareholders clapping didnt think it would turn into this should have known better

                      I can almost see the CP tracks... between the bins in the background... they are just beyond the far bushes!!!

                      Our dogs are always annoyed by the train honking and making all the coyotes howl!!!That really sets them into motion!
