Capacity is one of the main issues that faces the West’s rail system.  With the growth in Intermodal traffic and other rail served businesses, some areas simply cannot support any more rail movement on their current tracks.  Cedar City is a twenty-one mile branch that is severely under-utilized.  The potential for growth on this branch could be very aggress. 

Land in these areas has also become scarce.  With the growing importance of rail, finding the right location with available land is an exercise in futility.  Cedar City has incredible potential by setting up Port 15 Utah.
