Interesting. There has been a ton of banter over the winter about converting the mostly derelict CN East Yard (Detroit) to an intermodal facility, as Moterm is getting quite cramped. With its proximity to all major arteries (I-94/I-75, etc.), and with the adjacent Mount Clemens sub being upgraded with power crossovers between mains (Milw. Jct.,St. Aubin and Forest Lawn), it would seem to make sense. The railroad is paying hefty tax on unused land that could possibly be used as a part of this Detroit intermodal expansion they speak of... RandallG
