I don't know how accurate that map is. For instance, I thought Riverside to Framingham was four tracks. Checking Google maps, it certainly was.

I assumed it was a bigger operation. 2% annual wage increases won't even keep up with cost of living, obviously I don't know their current wages. Don't want labor friction to "derail" the sale. When they become CSX employees will they keep this agreement or adopt CSX's?

I should note I am sure the national contracts have benefits over the ST ones and they likely get some similar perks. I believe the pay rate was slightly higher. Unsure if ex-ST folks will get Dovetail rights, it depends a lot on how they set up the Division.
