east central NE.
I just got a education , I really thought the barges held a lot more, as that would only be about fifteen rail cars, so one train would be equal to about eight barges. It looks like the trains could cycle faster and be loaded and unloaded faster and would not have to haul the distance to the river by truck. OK now what dose a ship hold .
