Warren Buffett (Trades, Portfolio) was the subject of a lot of second guessing when he bought Burlington Northern.

Time has once again proven Buffett to be right. For years, Buffett hated the railroad business. What changed is that Buffett figured out that the consolidation of the industry had raised pricing power and that there was tremendous opportunity to get a good return.
