QUOTE: Originally posted by tree68 Let's see - bean counters are in Jax, yard, cars, crews are in Toledo. You can't see there from here. What the heck - we can put all those cars someplace else. We'll see a savings on paper from closing down a facility. The losses in productivity can be blamed on the worker bees. "I" get an award. Looks good to me...[:-^]

QUOTE: Originally posted by BaltACD Prosperity will kill CSX....The physical plan is sized for a Depression Level of traffic....If we truly have an economic recovery in the US (and W's math and John Snow's theivery make that unlikely) an increase in business will bury the CSX physical plant.. The terminals have been downsized to be mere shadows of their former status. Holding trains out of the major terminals is chronic. They run 9000 foot trains on territory with 7000 foot sidings and wonder why there are problems. Remote control T crews produce about 60 to 70% of the former T&E staffed crew and even when a T crew is replaced, grudgingly, with a T&E crew the moral of the work force is so bad that the T&E crew only produces to the level of the T crew. Maintenance on Locomotovies, cars, track and signals is being cut to the point that line of road Engine failures and car failures are rampant. Let the tempurature change 20 degrees and you are faced with either broken rails, pull-a-parts, or sun kinked tracks. Signals go red in the face of trains with regularity. What a way to run a railroad.!
