Rail is an essential component of a globally competitive economy.. . . In the U. S. A., modern freight and passenger rail systems
. . . share the same infrastructure.
. . . Yet, freight is maintained with little taxpayer money and
. . . freight trains can now move one ton of cargo approximately
. . . . . . 484 miles on just one gallon of fuel.
(Don't you wish you could say the same thing about your car?)
. . . These lower freight rail costs, save consumers money and
. . . help keep U.S.A. manufacturers globally competitive.
