The green economy. The greening of freight rail. Part 1
Description
Since the early days of the railroad there has been the ability to move massive amounts of freight to expand the literal horizons of where business is done. Today that trend continues except technology and good old-fashioned American know-how is leading the way. Moving a ton of freight nearly 500 miles on a gallon of fuel is now the benchmark for efficiency. You will see how the technology is revolutionizing the locomotives and companies like Gunderson, GE and others are looking to stretch that even further.
