Re: Propsed Steel manufacturing in/near Durand
Going along with penn central and AARR, my guess it will be a bird chopper manufacturing facility powered by more bird choppers or even solar. When you read 'increased housing values' in the article atrainguy60 provided, then it becomes obvious there will be a wind farm included some how, some way. ...

Re: CN U706 derailment in Plainfield, IL.
Wow. The derailment occurred where crews were laying a pipeline to rest under the ROW. The trenches on either side of the ROW are leading up to the borehole. Good thing is there was no fire or injuries.

Re: CN patents safer way to transport bitumen.
Knowing that Bitumen is a non volatile, adhesive and waterproofing material derived from residue from a selected asphalt rich crude oil, will Bitumen ever cease to be diluted with light crude to transport it in pipeline/tankcar?

Re: Dutch trains 100% powered by wind energy
The title is somewhat misleading. Nederlandse Spoorwegen is only one rail company. Other lesser trains are still burning diesel fuel. NS also buys 50% of the power needed for these trains from foreign countries and its source could be anything other than wind. On a side note, NS has remained profita...
