Railroads are an efficient transportation alternative to long-haul truck traffic. But efforts to expand rail yards in Arizona are meeting with opposition over land use concerns, environmental hazards and long-nosed bats.
Yeah man! Just what we need more trains and less trucks. Fewer jobs and besides that we all know that trains can deliver everything we do right to your door for a lot less money. All they need to do is eat up more land and build rail lines to every store and home in the good old U.S. of A. Oh yeah I forgot. The Government can and will subsidize them while they put more and more restrictions on Truckers. Great idea!
