  • Abstract
    When people learn that over one million railcars in North America are equipped with two radio-frequency identification (RFID) tags, they are surprised. When they are also told that the railcars have been equipped with RF tags for over 20 years, they are shocked. Most people´s perception of the railroads is that it is an old industry that is slow to adopt new technology. This is far from the truth.
