What is really interesting, is that Railroads ARE taking this new technology seriously, not just sticking their heads in the sand.
It comes down to the bottom line - MONEY. But being conscious of the environment is a bonus, and good for PR.

We are all on the Hunter Harrison "Precision Railroading" vision and path now.

And look at all the controversy Hunter Harrison caused

. Railroads, refused to modernize and look to the future for decades, and it almost destroyed the industry. Whether traditionalists like myself like it or not, being environmentally conscious is a good business practice. Being innovative and efficient is also good business. Sleeper stations are not a new idea, but the commitment to use them wasn't there before.
