To elaborate, New Orleans was the key CoT for every state west of the Missippi. It covered all the traffic down the Missippi. How about moving the Montreal CoT to Veracruz so we can eleminate that one, while adding the Veracruz one as well as keeping the New Orleans CoT. I also believe that once San Fransisco becomes important, the Veracruz CoT should be moved to SF, and a new( or moved if there is a CoT in Northwest) in Chicago. Maybe one can be eleminated though, because 4 CoTs in the US is a bit much.
