CMStPnP,
Isn't that similar to what California did with UP & BNSF for the CALTRANS trains?
Louisiana is putting in a huge addition to their container port. Gulfport, Mississippi, and Mobile, Alabama, both have expanded and are expanding their container ports.
I'm sure CSX is looking at all that future expansion of traffic along that rail corridor. I'm also sure they don't want to be messing around with Amtrak adding to the mix.

I don't know I don't follow CALTRANS that much but if they did then good for them I think you need a neutral party between Amtrak and the railroads like the DOT.

"The request for a continuance may indicate, according to some industry observers, that CSX and Amtrak, the primary adversaries in what has evolved into a contentious, litigious situation, are willing resume negotiations and reach an agreement on Gulf Coast service without STB intervention."
Still in training.
CSX needs more time to make up new outlandish numbers?

Will this be settled before or after we 'have' a 2022 Major League Baseball season? Both 'negotiations' seem at the same stage.
