In January 2018, CSX Transportation announced that it was seeking offers to buy the Decatur Subdivision and the Danville Secondary Subdivision as part of a system-wide sale of low-traffic routes, and in July, Watco, via the DREI, was identified as the winning bidder.[3] Following regulatory approval from the Surface Transportation Board ,[4] the DREI began operations on September 9.[5] Commodities on this route are primarily chemicals, plastics, soybeans, and corn.[6]
The DREI operates three intersecting routes totaling 182 miles (293 km )—the former Decatur Subdivision between Montezuma, Indiana , and Decatur, Illinois , the former Danville Subdivision between Terre Haute, Indiana , and Olivet, Illinois , and the former Eastern Illinois Railroad trackage from North Metcalf, Illinois , to Neoga, Illinois .[6] It interchanges traffic with CSX, the Norfolk Southern Railway , the Canadian National Railway and the Union Pacific Railroad .[5] The railroad is headquartered in Decatur, Illinois .[5]
