Tony....I think you forget that most people who have or hope to make a buck out of Tranzrail don't give a stuff about the coastline damage..greed is all-corrupting mate. Sorry. G  (discl..never have or never will hold Tranzrail...I was a taxpayer who got shafted by the original sale and I care about the coastline erosion too)

For the benefit of those of us with good brokers instead of half decent ones David, perhaps you could would explain...?

 

I am not an accountant, economist, or even an investor, and my perception of Tranzrail remains that of a relic..

West Coast coal operation held together with #8 and 4 inch nails, coastal shipping of one sort or another in & out of Nelson like blowflies, trucks getting bigger & more numerous, roads getting straighter & wider,

disgruntled Cook Strait passengers by the cubic mile, & last but  by no means least, shocking disregard

for the Sounds coastline with the wash from their big fizz boat.
