So, I dont know if NS said (YOURS!) or whether CSX said (OURS!), but to even the score, the PRR went to CSX. <br /> <br /> <br />ed <br /> <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Yeah,....My bet is that there was some "bargaining table" trade off made, as Buying something then giving it away never makes sense. Perhaps a concession to the regulators to lube the rest of the deal? <br /> <br />Tell me if you think this map of the Conrail split looks right or wrong to you.....Pay close attention to the colors <br /> <br />http://broadway.pennsyrr.com/Rail/Conrail/Breakup/main_lg.gif
