[?]On Saturday at Folkston GA a SB unit coal was mostly ICXX cars. What company is this? International Coal perhaps. Does any one know the final destination?
Perhaps that reporting mark will show up eventually.
ICXX is Cargill Dry Corn Ingredients Inc
Indiantown Cogenerative, LP. For even more info, please refer to the quote below from that “other” site called Trainorders…
“Indiantown Cogeneration Facility is located in Martin County Floria and is a 330-megawatt cogeneration facility fueled by pulverized coal. Electricity is sold to Florida Power & Light Company with waste steam being piped to the Louis Dreyfus Citrus processing plant. The plant came on-line in December 1995 with Cogentrix owning 85% of the site. At startup, the boilers were supplied with coal from the Costain Ivel facility on CSX’s Big Sandy Sub in Floyd County Kentucky. Costain had exclusive supply rights with a provision to back-haul flyash and take full responsibility for its disposal. This made for a very interesting operation with some ash flowing north in covered hoppers and some in Costain-owned CCXX coal hoppers. After Costain ran into some cash flow issues and closed and/or sold off most of their coal operations, Indiantown started sourcing coal from all over the CSX system. Trains are now in the N0xx series and orginate mainly at Patton, Goff, Burke or Bardo in Kentucky and Feats in WV. Other sites load some tonnage but it’s hit or miss. After termination of haulage in the CCXX hoppers, Indiantown had to use either CSX or lease hoppers. Looks like they have decided to take delivery of their own fleet now to take advantage of rate incentives. Robby”

Like the Indiantown Cooperative better. The picture I took shows ICXX 500027 an aluminum 13 post, 5 hopper open car with black lading. One end is painted red, perhaps for rotary coupler. If that is corn it has been a few million years since. I’ll look at the sites referenced above.
