A train should make (to make money) between 900-1000 dollars a day or better. It's a tough market but there is money to be made in it. My suggestion, get a truck that you can make universal...dirt...gravel...asphalt....Alot of guys won't do anything but dirt or gravel and if you put a lip on your truck (pan/chute) you can do shoulder work/asphalt. You won't be sitting home when the dirt job isn't going because the site is too muddy if you know what I mean!
Good Luck!
