Homework Help: high school economics - elasticity

What can you conclude about elasticity of demand for rail service:

Rail service has always been a losing proposition in Canada. Regardless of how much we raise our prices, we will never earn enough revenue to earn a profit.

This is confusing because I dont know if they are saying if revenue is actually going up or not. If it is, then it's inelastic for sure.
