Great Expectations in Hard Times America’s railroads are doing more than any other transportation mode to get the nation’s economy moving again. They move the raw materials for manufacturing. They ease traffic congestion and reduce emissions. They transport goods and people far more efficiently, and with less fuel, than other modes. They provide jobs and lower prices for consumers. Yet, unfunded mandates and proposed new regulations could curtail their ability to invest capital. In this special report, the Class I CEOs will describe what effect Capitol Hill’s legislative agenda could have on their individual railroad. Show your support for the industry, and reach your key customers, with an ad in this issue!
