CSX Transportation Railroad Heritage is a photographic essay of
this major railroad that was formed in 1980 by a merger of the
Seaboard Coast Line with the Chessie System, providing a history
that goes back to its beginning with the opening in 1830 of the
Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, which was the first common carrier
railroad in the United States. An early predecessor railroad was
the Chesapeake & Ohio Railway which introduced the figure of a
sleeping kitten Chessie in 1933 that became a well-recognized
advertisement for passenger service and later for freight service.
Each of the railroads that were merged contributed to CSX reaching
important population, energy, and manufacturing markets. The CSX
Pride in Service program resulted in three special painted
locomotives (shown in this book) honoring the nation's veterans,
active military personnel, and first responders.
