Coal fired trains verses Diesel?

Talking about Evil People.
I know that Diesel, before the oil crises in the late 1990s, when it went up to almost $150.00 a barrel and before that time it was so cheap, I mean, it was really cheap.
I bought a diesel motorised camper van for that very reason, that is was a cheap fuel compared to regular petrol.
I am now feeling the whole world is being cheated by the greedy oil companies because Diesel is far easier to produce than any other fuel that they supply, but is now much more expensive than regular petrol. How does that add up?

But what can you do? They are the Big Boys that pull the strings.

But apart from that evil, I would like to point out to people of another corrupt practise that these controlling devil man are perpetrating. And that is using 'Diesel trains to haul the coal to the power stations'.
Com-on! WTF? Are they trying to tell us that it is cheaper to truck in massive amount of diesel to run the trains, rather than used Coal fired engines, when the coal is right there at their feet, ready to load up straight out of the mine???

I must be as stupid as the people in government that think this is the right way to do business. Or are they being told by the huge powerful coal companies that this is what they must do, their ordered to comply?

  1. I just hope that they have a stand by if ever there is another oil crisis where there is no more oil available to be delivered to run the diesel trains that are essential to supply the country with electricity
