Amtrak's incremental costs to haul a private car are small. At $2 per mile they are making money. At the current rate of over $3, they should feel guilty. Those bozos don't know a gift when they see it. And anyone who has been in the business of operating PVs knows the numbers because we've crucnched them to make our own businesses successful. So if you don't have the experience, you just don't know. -John Date: 02/18/19 07:12 Re: PV On The Move This Week Author: ClubCar jcaestecker Wrote:

Amtrak makes money on PV moves period and their management is stupid for not accepting more moves. John in White Marsh, Maryland |
