Lost road disease

The condition gets worse every day. Another railroad bites the dust, you suddenly have people previously uninterested becoming experts in every aspect of its operation. Clinics are needed. If you or anyone you know may be infected with the disease, please call now. Our lines are open.

Ok is a bit lost which one bit the dust now ! Need to get my google search going.

Is it Duluth Missabe Iron Range?

Well DJaw
kinda funny when one railroad swallows another.just to find out they were doing something right after all.

I guess that means that CN is a cancer.

Who is the oncologist?

Well that would be the investors.When it gets to the point that the return on investment isnt there anymore,the cash flow will stop.cashotherapy so to say[;)]

it dont just happen with lost roads…it also happens with ones that are still around… you get a few “experts” that always come out of the woodwork… epecialy when things are going bad for the road…like pleqed with a rash of derailments…or some realy **** poor managment disitions…

Speaking as an oncologist of sorts, CA is the cancer. CN, of course, is cyanide … a fearful poison, if you like, which shuts off life and breath irrevocably even in relatively small doses…

Mangy acquisitions aren’t just limited to railroads. Laughable things like North American - Rockwell come to mind, too.
