What Will The Future Hold For The Eastern Railroads?
Title:  What Will The Future Hold For The Eastern Railroads?
Description:  The crew aboard this stopped eastbound freight (BNSF? CP?) at Union Junction had engines from both major eastern railroads for power. CSX rejected the advances of a railroad run by a man named E. Hunter Harrison in 2014, but now ol' E.H.H. wants Norfolk Southern. If -and I say if- NS falls into E.H.H.'s orbit, will CSX fall prey to a mega-mega merger too? This was one reason I took two photos of this train today. I have learned through sad experience that you can't take anything for granted as a railfan, and must enjoy every moment trackside as if it is the last day of the iron horse.
