Phil Buchwald says:
"I'm surprised that CSX doesn't feel that they own the rights to
the wagontop car itself, never mind the graphics. After all, the
wagontop is as much a symbol of the B&O as the dome herald."
And, of course, CSX can lay claim to 5 letters of the alphabet...I suppose...and even the city of Baltimore and perhaps the entire state of Ohio. In that case, if the city of Baltimore chose to pay CSX tribute and if the state of Ohio chose to do the same, that would be their business...and the business of the voters of the two regions to retire those in charge for incompetence. The same could be said for anyone paying tribute to CSX for using a model of the wagontop box car.
These subjects are, however,...by decree...not within the scope of the STMFC. If anyone cares to discuss such issues, I formed the Licen group a yr or so ago for just this purpose:
