An ITC study says a Norfolk Southern Conrail merger could divert substantial traffic from rivals, notably coal, auto parts and grain, with losses potentially ranging from 143 to 174 million in CSX business and over 100 million in coal for CSX. The report notes NS underestimates diversion and cites questions posed by Rep. Florio and Rep. Mikulski.
