Reply to "The end of trains"

GEYSERGAZER brings up an interesting point. Now - at least in many smaller population centers - 'Transload' facilities are being built to service local industries; which is basically a combination of train and truck delivery service. A train offloads the goods to what amounts to a temporary warehouse facility, and a truck then loads the goods up and delivers them to the industries. It's cheaper for both the railroads and truckers and apparently is working because there seems to be more and more of these 'tlf's being built.
