Leo,
Hate to say it but that's really true. Am on a Amtrak route now so
I get the daily passenger report. It has not looked good on the East
End the past couple of weeks. Just a lot of piddley stuff but it seems
to snowball. Sounder and Metrolink are looking fairly good as are the
long haul Amtrak routes.
I notice the South American suburban operations are no longer reported.
Did BNSF lose or sell that business?
