Re: Expansion at railroad shop in Antonito

Yes, I understood. Our company ships via rubber wheels most of the time from the ports and from the airport hubs.

Consider that for a moment though, in the earlier nineteen hundreds rail was the fastest type of transportation to get things from the Atlantic to the Pacific side of of the free world. Faster than foot, hoof or wagon train. By the end of World War ll this was no longer the case. Many personnel started taking matters into their own hands using the freedom of vehicular technology to answer the demands for sales and production profits. Soon many, John/Jane Q. Public and or small mom and pop to big corporations started moving small items to massive orders via dirt roads taking over the monopolized forms of massive transportation that rail, metal wheels on metal rail served. Rails soon started to loose their shine, and it wasn't long before the oxidizing rails were ripped up and taken out of the hubs of this nations societies. We are now in a different period of time where rail no longer dominates the infrastructure of our modern society. And patience is a trait of the past century.
