Hi! I was wondering if CSX Boston line could be a suggestion for a new route it runs from Schodack, NY to Worcester MA (129 Miles) and has grades up to almost 2.2% the grade starts in Westfield, MA and ends in Washington MA and the steepest part of the grade is in Middlefield, MA. Westbound is Uphill Eastbound is downhill It mostly freights It sees about 20 Trains a days including two Amtrak trains (Intermodel, Grain, Oil, Manifest, Coal) including the Locals. With switching operations in Springfield MA Yard and daily Local's to Palmer, MA with cars to interchange with two Short lines. That's my idea!
