When we first moved to Charlotte area in 1997 NS ran a roadrailer train 265 I think SB. Why did they stop running it?

While I don't know the NS real reasons for this particular train, I know the NS does away with things that don't make them money.  I would expect that over time this particular train fit that description, expecially with today's overall downturn in business.  It is very likely, the the company(s) whose business was carried on this train are no longer in business.

Never too old to have a happy childhood!
