I heard from a friend of a friend that works for CSX that they may be selling off some biusness and maybe laying off some employees. We live in south Alabama, and I know most of the members hear are from the north, but if any one knows anything about this please explain. Im on the ready for class list in Jacksonville for the conductor trainee school, and this will really effect my willingness to shell out the fourty-two hundred bucks! Thanks
I haven't heard anything lately about general cutbacks at CSX. The railroad has been looking to lease or sell some of its less-profitable routes to shortline railroads. In those cases, the shortlines usually try to run the line with fewer employees.
