Recs
KSU just started a tender offer for $250 million in notes, with a goal of eliminating debt. It also stands to benefit from a strengthening peso against the dollar along with higher automobile shipment from Mexico. Being in the plains corridor, it is well positioned for shipment for infrastructure improvement as well as pipeline construction.

rated 8 out of 10 at moneycentral; headline pick, Keystone pipeline will not happen, potentially boosting railroad demand, vindicating Warren Buffet

Developing great intermodal business, tremendous assets make for decent buyout candidate, high rates from Mexican market. What's not to like?!
Recs
Railroads are coming back steadily, and KSU is especcially well positioned for a relatively smaller player. They move many farm and fuel commodities and, if we assume manufacturing in the Mid-West revives will benefit enormously. They also tie into construction, especially lumber and cement. KSU also extends into Mexico, a very unappreciated market. Management is excellent, tight with a buck, and exploring alternative energies. Finally, KSU is a first-rate buy-out candidate or junior partner in a merger. Buy some.

As market recovers, an increased volume of shipping will follow. In addition to a return to previous volumes, rails can expect to steal some volume of goods from commercial trucking as the US seeks less energy dependence on foreign oil.

KSU has taken a bad hit in this market due to lack of demand. However, once stimulus funds begin to spur businesses, demand for rail services will begin to pick up.
Recs
KSU is priced under book value and has a solid business. Rail isn't going anywhere.
