JACKSONVILLE, Fla., April 23, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CSX Corporation (NASDAQ: CSX) today announced its latest group of high-ranking properties to receive CSX Select Site designation under the industrial development program. Eighteen sites across 12 states have earned a gold, silver, or bronze rating based on an evaluation of a wide range of site characteristics.

CSX worked with more than 29 communities to gather information and identify top candidates for the Select Site program, which connects expanding companies with highly desirable rail-served properties.

“Each Select Site reflects months of collaboration with landowners, counties, and utility partners that now represent a significant opportunity for economic growth,” said Kellen Riley, CSX Senior Director of Industrial Development. “By bringing these sites to market with the right due diligence already in place, we’re making it faster and easier for manufacturers to invest, build, and create jobs for local communities.”
