I just did a walk through downtown and the strees and sidewalks beneath these rail lines are long overdue for some TLC.
Does CSX not bear the financial responsibility for the structural integrity (and rehabilitation) of the railroad bridges?
As I understand it, in a very highly unusual arrangement that probably dates to the fact that we built the first Union Station in the world, the City owns the bridge structure and has actually shut CSX down in the past while it determined whether a concrete fracture was structural or cosmetic.
I’m curious about that, too. The city had those tracks elevated between 1915 and 1918, so it may be entirely possible that CSX doesn’t own those bridges at all.
Look at the sad state of about every other railroad bridge in town and it’s obvious CSX cares not about thier condition.
Until something falls on someone and they have a lawsuit then they will care
