If CSX sponsors or allows a steam excursion that'll be a major change in corporate policy.  For the past decade (or longer) it's been "NOT nobody!  NOT no-how!"

I'll be very interested in seeing how this develops.

Guest operators C&O 614 and C&O 2716 doubleheading over Allegheny Summit, and Sandpatch, and pulling 8,000 feet of doublestacks to Chicago on the B&O raceway, with Ross Rowland's hand firmly on the throttle of 614.

Wait, never mind, the nitrous oxide from my dentist visit is wearing off.

Nope.

 

An analyst asked Foote if he and other CSX executives continued to be on an "apology tour" for the railroad's performance. "It is not an apology tour anymore," he said. "That is cancelled. There is nothing to apologize for."
