Good, maybe he'll ask why the hell are there so many slow orders on the Cadillac district, and GLC doesn't seem to want to spend any of there money on ties or rail. The state contract reads that the operating railroad is to spend 20 to 25% of its earnings on general track maintenance!!! Instead they wait till the track gets so bad that the state come's to the rescue with a track rehab project!!! GLC stands for GONA LOSE CUSTOMERS

Can you prove that they aren’t spending this supposed minimum on MOW? Or are you just slinging mud you have no way of knowing the truth about?

Maybe LSRC should consolidate GLC into their system then. They seem to know how to run a railroad. Just a theory. Probably never gonna happen tho
