<p>[QUOTE=&quot;coleguy, post: 1144717, member: 9167&quot;]Thats a real possibility. I work for a railroad and fortunately we&#039;re in a position where fuel prices haven&#039;t effected the price it costs our customers to ship. In fact, prices have decreased for them over the past five years. We&#039;ve seen over 70% increases in volume because it&#039;s 1/5 the price to ship by rail than by truck now because of fuel prices. Of course, when your company owns the refineries where it gets it&#039;s fuel it helps a lot.</p><p><br /></p><p>The part that will effect everyone regardless of how cheap the shipping is, is when fuel effects farmers on the farm level. When that farmer has to go from paying 3.50 a gallon for diesel for his combine to 4.75, no amount of cheap shipping will prevent the prices from rising everywhere.</p><p>Guy[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
