NOTE,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
"A train-mile is the movement of a train (which can consist of many cars) the distance of 1 mile.  A train-mile differs from a vehicle-mile, which is the movement of 1 car (vehicle) the distance of 1 mile.  A 10-car (vehicle) train traveling 1 mile would be measured as 1 train-mile and 10 vehicle-miles.  Caution should be used when comparing train-miles to vehicle miles. ",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
