Stands for Precision Scheduled Railroading. CSX Rail Road Cooperation implented this into their service and it took it's main toll in-between the years of 2019-2020. This was supposedly a plan which would save money on departing daily trains from places on CSX tracks. Since then trains have been abolished, ID codes have changed, routes have been transfered, and also, trains have been combined. That is why you can now see upwards of a 15000ft. Long Monster train on CSX trackage. It also cut down the usage of foreign power which is one railroads engines operating on another railroads tracks. I had not seen BNSF in Folkston, GA for over 2 years because of this. CSX has since dropped PSR as of mid 2021 but it still lives on In all of the other USA Class One Railroads and possibly even Canada's class ones as well. If you want a real look at a RR that was hit hard, go Railfan Norfolk Southern (NS). NS had just finished triple tracking (3 tracks) their Mainline to Chicago (Chicago Line) and it was needed for the lines 90-100+ trains a day. Now the lines probably only serves 60-70 on a daily basis. CSX also sold off one of their lines in Florida which cause a half of all Folkston traffic to take another route. That line had 60-70+ a day and now the highest recorded number is 23.

"Dude, did you see that 18000ft. Plus Union Pacific Train yesterday?"
"Yeah, it was probably created by PSR."

Stands for Precision Scheduled Railroading. CSX Rail Road Cooperation implented this into their railroad and it took it's main toll in 2019-2020. It's main purpose was to cut down rail traffic so that it would be less cost to send out trains every day. CSX used this act to abolish trains, change ID codes, and also in this case, merge trains which is now why we can have a train up to 15,000 ft. On the CSX system. This act also took a toll on the foreign power usage. Foreign power is another railroads engines operating on another's railroads tracks. I had not seen BNSF in Folkston for over 2 years because of this. Lastly it was spread nationwide and every other class 1 railroad in the US and possible Canada too implemented this into their systems. This is slowly killing their economy but they haven't figured it out yet.

Gbull Adventures is me. It's my YouTube channel where I like to post things about trains, my animals, and basically all the random crap I do in life. I always wonder why model trains are so expensive?
Gbull Adventures - A YouTube channel with bunches of videos about what a singular teenager does when he goes railfanning
Your average railfan from where the gators roam. Also Folkston, GA. PSR altogether is stupid and does nobody any good whatsoever. CSX GIVE FOLKSTON BACK ITS 70 DAILY TRAINS AND BUY BACK THE TALLAHASSEE LINE
Why can't Norfolk Southern just resolve the issue in East Palestine already. You blow up there town and then you gift them a museum WTF
CP + KCS X= CPKC. Why the heck did they have to merge
Takis are like the substance I live off of. I'll eat 5 bags in a month and then wonder why my stomach hurts-. Also why Mountain Dew just recently started giving me heartburn I will never know
One of those people who could eat straight bread for the rest of their life and not complain about it
When I went to the great lakes:
"I would rather take hundreds of free rocks from the beach then have to pay thousands if dollars on packets of 15 fake ones from Hobby Lobby"
Spends too much money on model trains. $100+ for a non DCC N scale Amtrak loco IN NORMAL PAINT!!
I need to see KCS this year so CSX you better be arranging some random B631 with KCS and CN
Karen encounters are amazing. Asian and Mexican food is top teir
fan of Brightline, Danny Harmon, and SSSNIPERWOLF. Overlistened to "Til the World Ends" by Brittney Spears-. 2015-2020 pop era was the best music
Not a foamer, EMD SUPREMACY, Pittsburgh line is awesome, CSX also needs to repaint 1827
