Not saying you are incorrect, but it’s hard to imagine a rail company intentionally leaving a productive line inoperable for a month just to punish a town. They had to have lost a ton of money because of that.

I think the implication of the parent was that the car part was ripped up not the rail part. The line works just fine, just f* the cars that need to cross it.

The rails are still in place with the road blocked.

Then perhaps you should consider the possibility that you're imagining the wrong thing. Greed is indeed a powerful motive, but insufficient as your only roadmap to the world.
