  1. Great Show, I do have a question or two, is it true that Union Pacific and BNSF are talking about combined interest into the CSX?
    Also why does the class 1 railroads, are more interested running longer training than meeting most of their customers wants? This will be their down fall if they don’t change their ways of doing business, sad. The maintenance on track and locomotives side is not up to the challenge with less people, looks to me that derailments are up from the last 2 years though out the system and a lot of locomotives are back into storage too,sad.
