The Daily CSX – Tony Hatch on CSX: Looking back on Q4 2017 and forward to March 1

By Tony Hatch, Progressive Railroading Magazine; February 2018

If you listened to CSX Corp.’s Jan. 16 earnings call, it might have seemed at first that time had gone backwards, what with the talk of “bulldozing Atlanta,” sharply cutting capex and headcount etc. But in between the lines, we heard signs of the post-Hunter world developing — as it continues to develop at CP and as it has done so well at CN.
