CSX (NASDAQ: CSX) has another site next to its network that is available for development.
This property is the Columbia Tennessee Rail Site. As a “select site,” the property has gone through land use considerations, and that vetting means the time for a prospective customer to construct a facility on site can be shorter.
This is the second CSX property in Tennessee. The 225-acre site at Columbia, one hour south of Nashville in Middle Tennessee, is adjacent to an industrial park and has access to the Tennessee Southern Railroad and the four-lane U.S. Highway 43. The Tennessee Southern Railroad, operated by Patriot Rail. interchanges with CSX.
