Buffett Bets On Rail Superhighway To Beat Trucks As Coal Fades

An eastbound grain train passes by flatcars loaded with concrete cross ties on the Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) Railway Co. Southern Transcontinental line in Alva, Oklahoma, U.S., on Wednesday, Aug. 19, 2015. After this year, BNSF Railway Co. will be more than 99 percent finished with a second, parallel line to its 2,200-mile (3,500-kilometer) Los Angeles-to-Chicago route. Doubling up will create a rail superhighway speeding deliveries of toys, electronics, autos and other goods, because trains won't have to yield to each other on sidings as they do on single tracks.
