Any Metra passenger can       count the number of oil trains parked in yards or passing on adjacent tracks.       Before, BNSF ran mostly coal trains and some tanker cars mixed in with other       freight cars in trainsets. No need to pass within 2 miles of Sears Tower, EJE       loops around the populated suburbs.              --- SoupGate/W32 v1.03        * Origin: LiveWire BBS -=*=- UseNet FTN Gateway (1:2320/1)    |
