Free-to-move-LNG-Alaska-Railroad-gains-FRA-blessing-to-transport-liquefied-gas-to-interior-region
The first LNG trains in North America will move natural gas from the Anchorage area of Alaska, which has abundant NG, to the interior of Alaska which currently relies on coal, oil, wind and wood-fired heat and power systems. Local NG piping systems are already being building in towns in central Alaska to deliver NG directly to homes for heating.
I can see this happening elsewhere in the USA, given the current opposition to building pipelines and other infrastructure in the lower 48.
LNG trains will use existing railroad infrastructure, and so won't encounter the opposition from Indians, environmentalists, farmers, and the Federal government that new oil and NG pipelines are running into.
cheers!
