This discussion has been dead for a while, so considering all that has happened concerning this subject in the past few months, I've decided to revive it.
I did some research, and then some calculations, which resulted in this list:
CSX Line Sales List
Alabama & Tennessee River Railway - 120 Miles - July 10th, 2018 (Sale of Lease)
Fulton County Railway - 25 Miles - July 10th, 2019 (Sale of Lease)
Decatur & Eastern Illinois Railroad - 126 Milies - September 9th, 2018 (Sale)
Plymouth Line - Lake State Railway - 57 Miles - March 29th, 2019 (Lease)
Pittsburg Branches - Allegheny Valley Railroad - 47 Miles - May 15th, 2019 (Sale of Lease)
Florida Gulf & Atlantic Railroad - 373 Miles - June 1st, 2019 (Sale)
Massina Line - Candian National Railway - 220 Miles - Unknown (as it was just announced) (Sale)
Sold Lines = 911 Miles
Leased Lines = 57 Miles
Sold & Leased Lines = 968 Miles
Amount they want to sell = 4,800 Miles*
Amount they have sold = 968 Miles
CSX is 20% with their line sale program 21,000 Miles*
Size of CSX before the line sales: 21,000 Miles*
Current Size of CSX: 20,032*
*these are rough estimates
I just want to give an update on this subject, mostly because I obsess over this stuff, and I think you all would be interested. I'll keep updating this list as time goes on. If there is anything wrong with it, please tell me.
