The big BP fuel terminal near me is supplied by pipeline with no active rail within 15 miles. That terminal in turn, fills dozens of trucks every day so they can go fill tanks at gas stations for miles around.

Rail is great for long distance single source and single destination transportation but continuously flowing fluids are not one of those things.

Rail is better than someone saying NYET to pipelines.
