Trains are amazing for cutting out carbon from the delivery chain. You can even run double stack containers with overhead electrical traction (both China and India do it). Honestly using trucks to ship from a California port to Utah makes no sense - use trains and then transfer to trucks only for the absolute last mile

There could be issues with capacity, but it would be good.

Tesla trucks whilst nifty have issues, not least the huge road wear from heavy vehicles.
