Thanks for posting this. I used to arrange rail movement of containers for a large shipping line several years ago. That the trains are now up to 50 cars long is unbelievable.
We have trains that are over 200 cars long coming out of the ports of Long Beach/Los Angeles. They’ll have three engines in the front and up to four engines right in the midway point of all the cars. They move the cars up the Alameda corridor - the below ground rail line that latest Grand Theft Auto video game is known for - and then into the City of Commerce and from there they go out all over the Midwest and the rest of the nation.
