(AP) — The sharp drop in coal demand that has weighed down railroad profits since last year appears to be slowly coming to an end. Many utilities turned away from coal last year as they switched to cheaper natural gas to generate electricity. But natural gas prices have doubled in the past year, and some power companies are finding it cheaper ...
