CSX dropping more intermodal

No more outbound service from Columbus Ohio.
NS will be the winner here.

No outbound service to about a dozen locations via sorting at NWOC. Still will have service to Chicago.

I thought a railroad was supposed to take business away from trucks, not voluntarily spoon feed it to them.

CSX dropping more intermodal? Wow. CSX just opened a new intermodal terminal in Mc Keesrock, PA (Pittsburgh) in August. It's not very large, but it is new. I wonder what will become of that facility and others. E. Hunter Harrison and his "precision" scheduling and service. Or not.

As long as NS doesn't get forced by Wall Street into the same disaster that EHH has been to CSX, I'd think that NS must love EHH! "Oh, damn, he's sending us more business!".

UPS Peak Season begins in five weeks. Hmmmm. Wonder if EH has that on the calendar.

Looking into my crystal ball, how about a merger between NS and CSX with all NS management at the helm. Don't think the Government would approve it but sure sounds good.

History may show that EHH was off a few like Henry Crown was. Don't do anything about it, just let it all fall to s**t.

He did not sound well during the audio portion of the conference call, that's for sure. The transcript shows a number of [indistinct] and [trails off] during replies. The other speakers didn't have that issue
