Re: What does this mean? said by perki:why is this new? It isn't new. All they are doing is laying down another fiber backbone in the US because they claim their is a shortage of dark fiber in the US. That is a declaration that could be disputed.
Fiber has been laid along railroad right of way for decades. Old Conrail(split up & bought by NS & CSX in 1998) tracks are going to be the backbone in the phase 1 part of this company's build-out.
I met with Qwest & NS execs back in late 1990's and did deals to lay fiber on Conrail right of way between NY & Chicago and NY & Atlanta.
In fact the guy that Allied Fiber is dealing with at NS is still the same person I dealt with 15 yrs ago - George Eichelberger. Here is a video of him made this year explaining how NS does these fiber deals with many companies.
