Train VS truck efficiency!!

Rail vs. Truck Energy Efficiency (In Progress)


Railroad fuel efficiency has increased by 72 percent since 1980. Then, a gallon of diesel fuel moved one ton of freight an average of 235 miles. In 2001, the same amount of fuel moved one ton of freight an average of 406 miles.

UP: Rail Versus Road

COMEBACK AHEAD FOR RAILROADS They have been losing out to truckers for decades. Now they are grabbing business and making shareholders happy. With help from Congress, they should do even better. - June 17, 1991
