October TRAINS has a lead article by Rush Loving Jr (author: "The Men Who Loved Trains"; written while Snowman was at the throttle) describing in very favorable terms the renaissance of CSX Transportation under Michael Ward's leadership, and for that matter, the exit of The Children's Fund.
I really have to hand it to TRAINS; I think the "sidebar" referencing The Children's Fund Investments activities is about as concise a piece written in lay terms as I have seen regarding that matter. So long as TCI held a substantial position, I was not going to hold same myself in CSX. As soon as I learned they were "adios", I took a position.
All told the article portrays Ward as the "second coming"; on one hand I'd like to think objective reporting is being put forth, but then another view could be these retired railfan-journalists (Frailey, Phillips, and now Loving) enjoy the access they receive so long as the propaganda is spewed..
