| ND Commissioner Says Rail is Opportunity |
| 11/4/2009 |
| North Dakota Public Service Commissioner Brian Kalk predicts renewed interest in railroads. Kalk says investor Warren Buffet must see an opportunity if his company is willing to put up $34 billion for the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railroad. BNSF is North Dakota`s largest rail shipper. Kalk says pipelines cannot get built fast enough and trucks cannot haul as much as rail cars. He says, "rail is where a lot of transportation is going to end up in the next few years." Kalk thinks that would be good for North Dakota`s agriculture, energy and other industries. |
