Since we're in the off-topic area already, I'd like to take this thread slightly off topic to ask: Who are these CSX and Union Pacific and BNSF commercials directed at? Me, the consumer? I can't go to the store and pick out clothes and lumber that were specifically only transported by one of three train brands, so it kind of seems like a wasted commercial.
I would also think that if their target audience is companies that need to ship a lot of stuff, they would already know that a train would be the most efficient means of moving their stuff.
Am I missing something?
