TMPG: over 400 tmpg – note, most rail runs around 80mph outside of cities.

I don’t think this affects the efficiency one way or another, but I just drove close to half way across the country and back, mostly on US 40. Probably saw 30 freight trains. Didn’t see a single one much over 60 MPH. None were close to 80.[/quote]
And you probably saw them near towns where the rail goes through..?? [/quote]
No, in the middle of f’ing nowhere. Which is pretty much the entire distance between Winslow, AZ and Oklahoma City.
