مستخلص: The article discusses the business outlook for intermodal rail and talks about the developments that may spur growth or sustain the industry, which suffered from the declines in domestic and international traffic. Toby Kolstad, president of Rail Theory Forecasts, sees that imports from China will slow down and the industry will only experience moderate growth until 2014. However, intermodal quality has improved and the eastern rail network has been streamlined. Warren Buffet's 26 billion U.S. dollar-investment in BNSF is also seen as an endorsement.
