Who cares?
West Coast ports and rail lines should.
Jumbo container ships from Asia could only port on the west coast as they did not fit the Canal (save for sailing around South America).
Now with the expansion, they will go directly to the East Coast, reducing west coast port business and the associated ground movements from there.
Ports like Seattle, Tacoma and Vancouver are very concerned.
And some container shippers are likewise concerned. There is a glut of traditional sized ships (They over built) and now these are being replaced by jumbo ships.
