[edit] Why?
This article (along with its Class I railroad and Class III railroad sisters) desperately needs some description as to *why* these classes exist and are important. At present the articles mostly make them sound like rather arbitrary statisticians constructs, which probably wouldn't in themselves merit WP articles. There are sideways hints that there are regulatory consequences to a railroad depending on what class it is in, but nothing that really describes how the regulation of different classes of railroad differ. Can anybody supply this. -- Chris j wood (talk) 15:53, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
