CSX-DAN. Say if you have CRS program or not just want to know you may have to leave a massage on the public saftey answer machine. Try monday because there is no one there today to answer your question today or sunday.

I know but how do they do it. For example, Conrail delievers 5 boxcars and makes a profit. Who gets the profit? Is it split up?

Yes they did actually. There was a small group of GP20's of NYC heritage that they had inhertied. PC de-turbocharged them. Most I have seen were used for yard transfers between Sharonville (Cincinnati) and L&N's Decoursey, KY yard.
They were retired in 1985.

As far as I know they never did. They had a 44-tonner #9999 at start up but it was retired within the first two years.

I grew up on an ex-Reading rr branch in SE PA. One of my earliest memories was a CR train with a black ex-PC GP35 leading a CR blue unit. It took me years of learning about trains to identify what I saw. Not surprisingly it broke down before they could leave town!
If you want to see ex-CR units east texas is a good place. I have seen C40-8W's, SD60M/I's, SD40-2's, SD50/60's, GP40-2's, etc. Every time I go to Centennial yard or Tower 55 in Fort Worth I see them.

So there still is a Conrail but it is owned by CSX and NS (Conrail is independent). Is it owned 50-50 by the two?
