    GL Lost Surplus Contract

    There's plenty of good blacksmith shops. They've changed from a business model of "repair and fab" to a business model of "cottage industry making high end artwork using the old methods" and getting top dollar for their work....

    Looks like Iron Planet got the nonrolling stock contract.

    GL Lost Surplus Contract

    What competition? If GL doesn't get it back, it'll be one monopoly losing to another monopoly. It won't be a division of the nonrolling stock. The "competition" portion comes into play when they're competing for the contract.

    I wonder if this is related to GP's pending announcement.
