CSX DRI Meeting

Monday, November 26th, the Central Fl Regional Planning Council, held a CSX/DRI meeting at the SE Complex in Winter Haven. It was a traffic methodology meeting. What that means in plain English is they had another meeting to go over the last meeting and answer questions the overseeing group had.
The questions were things like: (and answers)

What the expected growth would be (CSX and consultants couldn't really answer, although they
did say that the past performance had shown a flat line growth rate and didn't expect a change. A company that has no expectations to grow, wow, maybe we should ask their CEO and stockholders how this is happening.)

How many daily employees and employee trips in and out? (From the 8500 we first heard about to 200, now we are down to 75-110. The additional which add up to 200 are not employees but normal traffic in and out to run a complex, such as UPS drivers and mechanics to work on equipment.)

Those are just a few. Mostly a technical meeting which I am told most people wouldn't understand, but I still encourage everyone to come to the next meeting!
