To everyone interested in CSX, its interchange with the NY&A, and operations in Oak Point and up the Hudson Line -
Several MSW and C&D carters are in negotiations to switch from truck to rail as a permanent solution, and this would mean more traffic for both CSX and NY&A. Of course the NIMBYs on Long Island are trying to stop this, going so far as sending a letter to Gov. Cuomo pleading him to stop the conversion over to rail. The pro-rail group, Rail New York, has started a petition to Gov. Cuomo voicing SUPPORT for rail. Only 28 more signatures are needed on this petition, which takes less than 30 seconds to sign.
Please turn your passion for railroads into real-world activism. All that is needed is a signature. Spread it around to your friends/family as well. Thanks!
