Hello fellow NE railfans! Since this PAR/CSX merger went into effect, i was curious about how NS is getting their daily stack train between Chi and Ayer into Ayer from Mickeyville and visa versa. From my understanding, CSX has given NS trackage rights/haulage rights on the B&A for the 264/265. Im not understanding how they would get the stacks off the PAS and all the way down to B&A. Also, once they get to Worcester, are they taking the north split toward Barbers like Q/M426 used to?

Thanks in advance :-D

They're working at rebuilding the connector at CP-VO; this has been covered in a few threads in the Pan Am forum. The trains are still running their normal routing via PAS at this time...
