Well, from a CSX report I got, it seemed like they were only limiting service in Florida and Georgia (And yet somehow not slowing the shipping time of their cargo. weither or not thats changed Im not sure, but they seem to be running average traffic here in MD for today. We will see what the week brings.

Well,don't know about all that,but from my understanding;
all the railroads along the east coast were preparing for it.

I do know that they have declared a lot of that area disaster
areas,and unless you can prove you live there,they won't let you in.

Being Crazy,keeps you from going "INSANE" !! "The light at the end of the tunnel,has been turned off due to budget cuts" NOT AFRAID A Vet., and PROUD OF IT!!
