UPDATE!! On Jan 31 2006, CSX offically stopped
running trains from Chatham to Sarnia. Over half the line from
Wallaceburg south to Chatham was abbandoned, the section just
north of the CP/CSX dimond in Chatham and south to Blenhim has
been sold to CN. Thus all traffic now originates out of Sarnia
and is hualed to the CN yard by CSX crews and CSX locomotives.
This has been the only change so far in Sarnia. Also note there
are longer CP rail units being used becasue there are no trains
to Chatham anymore. This was quite a sad time on the CSX, many
employees uncertain about their future on the railroad here. The
rumor of CSX switching over to leased CN power has not happend
as of yet. The state of former CSX buildings along the abbandoned
and CN purchased parts of the line are unknow at this time.
