Thank you Bruce!

Eloquently stated. This is not a political list, and should remain so.

There is also ample proof on the other side that the coal industry is and has been in decline for years and not because of the EPA. Soft markets overseas and increased competition from other countries, cheaper fuels, and rising costs to mine Eastern coal have had a bigger impact than any perceived "hate" of anything by anyone.

It is just interesting to see how much of the former Norfolk & Western has borne the brunt of the changes, reductions, and closures. Probably the only thing saving the Pokey main is the investment in improvements to move doublestacks between the excellent port in Hampton Roads and the Midwest.
