I find it hard to believe that CSX could earn their bonus based on my experience in the Washington, DC area. The latest incident had CSX imposing a 15 mph speed limit on passenger trains (potential flash floods) while maintaining a 40 mph limit on their freights. They even further delayed the passenger trains by stopping them so that the faster freights could go by. I don't think we'll ever have acceptable passenger service unless these type of agreements are changed. It would probably require federal legislation. In fact, I often question the concept of RR rights of way. They constitute barriers which it is often difficult to get around, grade crossings are dangerous and produce many fatalities and injuries and how much time is lost waiting for that long slow freight to get by, not to mention the stopped freight train. Seems to me we deserve more public spirited railroad management.
