We had to try to do something to get their (BNSF's) attention, ... Filing a lawsuit was about the only vehicle left at our disposal to utilize. We tried talking and met with them and (had) Gov. Vilsack here, and I believe they were well aware that the state of Iowa was willing to do anything within reason to try to keep that facility (West Burlington shops) open and operating. It was to no avail.
