CSX to Haul Maersk Cargo to Midwest From Virginia | Journal of Commerce

Under the new contract, CSX will haul cargo from the terminal to its new $175 million intermodal hub near North Baltimore, Ohio, which will serve the region’s heavy industrial shippers. The changeover is part of the Virginia Port Authority's attempt to reach new markets by extending rail service to new regions in the Southeast and the Midwest.

Norfolk Southern started a new rail service from the Norfolk International Terminal to Greensboro, N.C. that will open up that market to exports by furniture, textile and agricultural shippers in the region. Two ocean carriers have already signed up to use the new service for exports.

Ah... behind the times there OVM?

CSX has their own trucks running from hub to hub and hub to PoP in the last couple years. Container freight is starting to ramp up and because of the amazing fact that we are restricted by states on the subject of interstate commerce, with either ancillary equipment or port access, we will see an awful lot more of this.

Don't you drive anymore?
