more CSX public relations
Posted by ROBERT WILLISON on Wednesday, March 18, 2015 10:36 AM

CSX announced another children health  grant program.  A feel good program that encourages and helps children wellness in the areas they serve. In today's world does it better serve its on line community than a steam program?  I love steam but kids are important to.

Would it be churlish to suggest that children love steam-powered trains every bit as much as we Ancient Ones?  Why can't CSX do both........put the kids on a steam train and then give 'em a wellness lecture (while passing out free donuts)?

To each his own.  

Now, cue the usual "nothing to do with the bottom line or the shareholders' interests" voices.

Hey we all can do more, support our local museums and children initiatives. May be its time for more rail fans writing checks instead if just snapping pictures.

Great initiative on the part of CSX. They're giving back to the communities they serve... nothing at all wrong with that. Perhaps an example other businesses should follow.
