CSX Transportation
CSX Transportation is a class 1 railroad in the United States, owned by CSX Corporation.
History
It was formed by the merger of several CSX Corporation subsidiaries that had been part of the predecessor Chessie System Railway and Seaboard Coastline Industries,the first step being the 1982 amalgamation of SCL subsidiaries into the Seaboard System Railroad.CSXT now serves many of the eastern U.S. states (with a few routes into nearby Canadian cities). On June 6, 1998, CSX and Norfolk Southern jointly acquired the assets of Conrail.
The 'C' and 'S' in the name stand for Seaboard and Chessie, while the X represents a combination of the two systems.

Juice Train: a model for unit train competition
CSX operates the Juice Train, a famous unit train of Tropicana fresh orange juice between Bradenton, Florida, and distibution centers in Jersey City, New Jersey and Cincinnati, Ohio. in the United States.
In the 21st century, CSX Juice Trains have been the focus of efficiency studies and have received awards. They are considered good examples of how modern rail transportation can compete successfully with trucking and other modes to carry perishable products.
