I certainly knew Conrail was gone. I read all the coverage about it in the Trains magazine that I could. There is very much a dislike over the split up of Conrail. Even today as you say, 5 years after the fact. But it seems to me that one word can sum it up very well--GREED. <br /> <br />And like other mergers in the past, this one has had its problems. NS seems to have done a much better job of handling its problems than has CSX. But from what I read "things" are not better because of the breakup. <br /> <br />When it comes down to it, I believe the Conrail stockholders may have made money in the short run, but possibly not in the long run. As for the railfans, we definitely got the short end of the stick.
