It's the uncertainty that a huge company closing would cause in the transportation industry. Customers are already nervous. The losses in the industy are enormous. But you only hear about companies like Jevic, WH, Rush, etc.

Long haul freight is going the way of the dinosaurs. Short to medium haul and LTL stand to benefit from more rail freight, but in the same vein, more rail freight takes freight off the roads and hurts everybody. It's an interesting paradox.

It's clear the only solution is to destroy the rails. Literally. With dynamite.

Do it now while metal is at a high... :)

Lucky for me when I got out of my last job I didn't get rid of all those explosives. Do you want all this stuff sent to your house REV or you gonna come pick it up?
