Eastern Railroad Discussion > CSX Auto-rack consistDate: 06/29/20 17:28 CSX Auto-rack consist Author: mustrev I live one block from a CSX line coming out of Savannah,GA. I have never seen auto-racks on the track until today when there was a entire consist of them. Does anyone know if this is a regular train or is it something new?

That's the best I can tell you. That X210 is all I saw that day that with a quick scan.
