The Surface Transportation Board (STB) has rescheduled the evidentiary hearing for the Amtrak Gulf Coast case to April 4-5.

The board changed the hearing's date after CSX asked that the proceeding be moved from March 9-10 to early April. None of the parties in the case opposed CSX's request.

The case involves Amtrak's petition calling on the STB to require CSX and Norfolk Southern Railway to allow the intercity passenger railroad to run its trains on the Class Is' line between New Orleans and Mobile, Alabama.
