I wonder how much steel those taconite pellets will make. Seems endless as far as the eye can see. Many years ago when the Penn Central was in operation they hauled these small jennies up hill and down with more power than one could stand because of the immense sound they made when hauling from Chicago to points east. Probably near Pittsburgh and Bethlehem where the steel mills hummed producing raw steel. And it seems wherever the tracks ran the railroads shipped in raw material and also shipped out the finished product.
