CSX Train Documents

The train conductor maintains the CSX train documents, or Consist, which detail the contents of each railcar in the train. In the early stages of an incident, it is imperative that you contact the conductor to review these documents. The conductor can explain the document in detail and help determine what materials are involved in the incident.
