A report from the USPS came out yesterday recommending committing to intermodal rail for long distance shipments. For the past decade or so, USPS has used only highways for moving the mail, but with the financial mess they are in, they are looking to cut cost in whatever ways they can. If this were to happen, it could be very large for the railroads in terms of volume and profit. There is a huge USPS facility right next to Croxton that would seem to be a great fit for such a service. It should be right down the road from CSX North Bergen as well.

I was skeptical at first, but this came directly from USPS and they seem pretty serious about it. Thoughts?

I think it may be possible that NJ Transit might not be the perfect, infallible organization that most people assume it is.
