Competitive Freight Rail Plan Faces Setback in Labor Talks
Government efforts to create a competitive Northeast and Midwest freight system hit a snag as Chessie System and Southern Railway failed to secure labor agreements for roughly 2000 miles of track set to be bought from seven financially strapped lines.
