  • "I dislike any RR that is mostly east of the Mississippi."

    Just curious, but why? I'm not trying to start a flame war or anything, just wondering.

    Mine are:

    1:CSX/Chessie/Seaboard/etc...

    2:NS/SOU/NW/etc...

    3:CNW

    4:UP/SP/SSW/DRGW/etc...

    5:CN/GTW/IC/etc....

    6:BNSF/BN/ATSF/etc....

    The question of what CSX stands for comes up frequently on these forums, so here you go. C=Chessie S=Seaboard, X=Many More/The RR's that Chessie and Seaboard were comprised of (L&N, C&O, SCL, etc)
