Is this one of those deals with NS sending all the work to their southern railroad yards and downgrading everything up this way as the economy gets lousier?

Hard to believe, as under PC and CR, this was a bustling place.
Conrail should have never been split up. CSX and NS have no business where they are now and CR ran the rails out from under both of those companies. Sad, sad, sad!
