US railroad CSX announces that it plans a major track-capacity expansion on its River Line, which is a transit route between northern New Jersey and the Albany, New York region. "The $26m project will enable CSX to handle more trains and support the growth of crude oil moving by rail, as well as intermodal shipments," says CSX. "Demand for crude oil, for example, in the New Jersey and Philadelphia area may be as much as five trains per day, or over 400,000 barrels, over the next couple of years." The company says that it has plans for additional River Line capacity expansion in future years.
