Take a deep breath, guys are just happy to see some decent rail traffic on a line that was once busy in its day. Anyways where is it written that anything in this world is ever guaranteed to stay the same? Nothing, everything keeps changing. As a matter of fact, commerce for a while now has been moving to the coastal areas because of the access to deep water shipping. The rust belt states are at a disadvantage because of this, but the ones that embrace change will recover from the hard times.
