Barge firms oppose CSX takeover in rail barge clash
CSX Corp seeks to buy American Commercial Barge Lines amid claims the deal would boost rail barge coordination and cut costs for shippers. Independents warn the monopoly rail operator could restrict cargoes to its own barge line, raising prices and squeezing rivals. The case heads to the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals with a potential March 1985 hearing.
