SC Iowa
here is link to a decent Nebraska railroad map

looks like lots of BN track in the state along with the UP

We are starting to see "cracks" in rail service into our south Iowa plant........we get some chemicals via rail and it used to be order the product and you would know when it would be there within a day or two.....not so anymore......it just feels like the whole system is "creaking" and there will be a greater need for moving grain by rail in the coming year....

the trucking industry is also having issues getting drivers.......a lot of folks "aging out" and the job is just not as attractive as it was once...
