we just finished a cross country drive and we listened whenever we could to the farm channels....big worry in Iowa is getting the railroad cars to carry their corn/wheat because apparently the natural gas industry is grabbing up a lot of the rail cars....

Seriously I was just telling brother the other day that the farm report really dials you into the local economy and to wider national matters.

I know it gets cold out this way, but we haven't resorted to carrying natural gas in grain cars yet.

Take a look at post 4 and tell me if it rings any bells.

Corn and wheat don’t travel in the same kind of car as natural gas.

Solids versus a high pressure gas!
