Warren Buffet owns the largest petroleum-shipping railroad in the USA -- BNSF -- and he has been publicly supportive of building Keystone. "Not building Keystone", he says, "is stupid."

Is it cynical to think that the railroads may be behind the blocking of slurry pipelines to move coal from Wyoming to power plants in the Midwestern US?

It has been talked about for over 50 years but the coal cars just keep rolling.

Cynical? It isn't even logical. Note the increase in shipments from North Dakota to the Northeast, where refineries have reopened thanks to Bakken oil. Keystone XL is going to the Gulf, not the Northeast.
