CSX will operate Pan Am with a smaller, more reliable and more fuel-efficient fleet, significantly reducing fuel consumption and improving rail’s environmental footprint in the region. New England will also benefit from CSX’s track record as leader in environmental performance. Over the next five years, CSX would invest to upgrade and modernize the Pan Am system, which will make the New England rail network more efficient and safer for operations, communities and passenger rail. “The proposed transaction would result in significant investments in the region’s rail infrastructure. “CSX has also worked to reach agreements with other rail operators and organizations in the region to ensure that the transaction results in enhanced competition and a strengthened rail network in the Northeast. “The combination of CSX and Pan Am provides benefits to many stakeholders in New England, as evidenced by the more-than 80 letters of support that shippers, elected officials and business organizations have submitted to the STB,” CSX said. The transaction will expand CSX’s reach in Connecticut, New York and Massachusetts while adding Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine to its existing 23-state network. Pan Am’s network reaches multiple ports and large-scale commodity producers.
