Cmq is reportedly giving up on 5 day per week service officially starting Jan 1, (surprise), they will be shooting for 2 day a week service to newport to interchange with vtr. With possibly a third trip if traffic warrants, but as we have seen so far this is not likely. CMQ'S marketing of the Newport sub is very weak, as we now see the majority of traffic moving cp. As i had said over the last few years, The claims of large amounts of traffic rejuvenating the conn river by cmq were and still are premature and unfounded. The line has too many different companies, owning to many different segments. Local traffic that will not touch cmq will be increasing on the line. ( from the south) but that's a different topic... I personally hope to see cmq sell the Newport sub and let a real railroad try to run it. But I do not imagine they will at this point. Loosing lines make a nice tax write off at the end of the year...
