    Reductions across the board for shippers from both UP and BNSF? Because of “staffing issues”? Less oil, less grain, less fertilizer – choke points that must be addressed, or….
    BNSF (Warren Buffet) saw record profit growth last year even as the workforce shrank and scheduling/hiring remained a mess. Railroad Brotherhoods (the worker’s unions) didn’t make any progress with severe cost-cuttings that left their working conditions in turmoil.
    Now, it could be that simple greed on the Company’s part is keeping staffing contracts where they are, staffing in bad shape.
    Could it also be a calculated move to further increase the pace of our decline? Who would have guessed that powerful forces would work in a coordinated fashion to bring America down a notch or three? Current regime is daily proving this to be exactly the case.

    @” Felix “, I think it’s a bit of both, mostly greed because of the opportunities that present themselves. The pace is picking up over here. Went to the store yesterday, no flour, no potatoes, … most empty shelves were filled with other articles in a move to hide the shortages… .

    Railroads are under the direct and sole control of Congress….its a big club and we aint in it as the man said. They clearly dont require our consent to do the so called green new deal and will up the Controlled Demo pace as they have more than reached the tipping point for grand distrust among most all elements of the populace. More like three notches

    So let’s review…Lumber transports are down, I live in wheat country and it’s transports are down, now fuel transports are being scaled back. So ask yourself; “just what the hell are they transporting, if anything?”

    Maybe ammo to their personal bunkers?

    So why the hell are we sending our diesel to Europe?

    It is all going according to plan. His testimony is confirmation of that fact. Famine and green bike lanes awaits us all.
