tim, ……..assumption based on what mark said.
maybe after losing 4500 cars in the US, transporting them across siberia is pushing it aswell.

Hmm, could this also be seen as a Green move by Mazda? Considering the TSR is already there, uses Electricity rather than a diesel locomotive and reduces the amount of Large car carriers on the road?
