Rail Connection Grant Called a Major Breakthrough

A lot of people were involved in what could get job creation really going at

Kingsbury Industrial Park.

 

A one million dollar state grant was recently obtained. It will pay for a rail line to bring CSX railroad into the park. During yesterday’s county commissioners meeting, commissioner Dr. Vidya Kora said numerous individuals were involved in what could open the floodgates to jobs at

KIP.

 

Commissioner Sheila Matias called the grant a real breakthrough because of the many years

invested in getting Kingsbury Industrial Park to this position.

 

The connection with CSX is expected to happen as soon as this year. Getting Canadian National Railroad into the park could also happen this year or maybe next year.
