CSX’s Intermodal Volumes Boost Upward Trend in Week 25
CSX (CSX), another Eastern US prominent railroad, reported a 1.6% YoY (year-over-year) growth in carload traffic. That week, it hauled ~71,300 railcars, up from ~70,200. In 2018, its railcar traffic is slowly getting back on track after a lackluster 2017. Compared with US railroads’ 2.5% YoY rise, CSX reported fewer gains. Its carload volume expansion by percentage was half its competitor Norfolk Southern’s (NSC) 3.1% YoY gains in Week 25.
