CSX didn't sell those lines to Mass Coastal...they leased the freight operating rights. The track itself is going to the
state of Massachusetts. Understand that CSX & BCLR extended their lease of the Dartmouth Industrial Track and
BCLR & MC have another 1 year extension of the MP6 to Mid-City Scrap portion of the branch.
Notice CSX did not lease out Attleboro to Middleboro or up to Braintree. They still do a good business Middleboro
to Braintree on track the MBTA maintains. Don't think CSX will pull out of here or Readville until Beacon Park
falls and the state finds money to actually pull off the purchase of "east of Worcester"!
