..Hunter Harrison, the railroad veteran who announced his early departure from Canadian Pacific Railway Ltd. Wednesday, is joining with an activist investor in an attempt to shake up management at rival railroad CSX Corp.I'm reminded of long time New York Yankees sportscaster, Mel Allen, and his favorit expression; "How do you like that".
Mr. Harrison, 72 years old, said he is completing an agreement to team up with Paul Hilal, who left William Ackman’s Pershing Square Capital Management LP to launch his own fund last year. They are expected to try to put Mr. Harrison in a senior management position at CSX, which CP approached about buying last year and in 2014, according to people familiar with the matter .
