I am sorta new to the board, so if this question has been posted before sorry. First question If a stack train leaves LA to New York City area, why would the routing east of Chicago, go to NS as verses CSX? Is NS faster to New York or do they have a better sales force to get business? The question was brought up at meeting of our club and no one seemed to know the answer. Again all trains, NS or CSX are going to the same area in New York and same consonee. Second question How does NS get to New York.as it seems to leave the former NYC at Cleveland, what is the rest of the way it gets to NY? The map on the NS home doesn't show it clearly, as It seems to go thru Pittsburg and leaves the former PRR at Harrisburg to go north. Again Thanks in advance. Bob Rabie, Fathers and Sons Railroad Club
