CSXT OFFERS WEB TRACING FOR RAIL CARS

   CSX Transportation said Tuesday it is the first freight railroad to provide tracing of rail cars via the Internet.

   Shippers can use a cellular phone equipped with a Wireless Application Protocol, or WAP-enabled Web browser to enter a rail car's initial and number and receive the latest event information on that rail car. More information on this service is available at http://wap.csx.com .

   Users can trace up to 20 rail cars at any time using a Personal Digital Assistant, such as Palm Pilot or Windows CE device capable of runing an AvantGo browser. Information on this service can be accessed at http://twsnetpublic.csx.com .
