Personally, I would like to see service between the Twin Cities and Kansas City (probably on the UP's "Spine Line" mainline) and reroute the California Zephyr to the UP's "Overland Route" mainline between Chicago and Omaha (former CNW).

I was watching tv, and I saw a ad for toyota, for one of their trucks.
It was.. When they took what looked one of those new GE locomotives, and have a chain connected to it, going a the trucks frame (just a frame) and the train went, must of ben going 20 mph and the frame stoped at some polls, making the train instally stop. Then the chain broke.
But there is no way that is possiable.
have you seen this ad?

With todays gps technology it should not be that expensive.
