Kentucky Transpark is a Top Five CSX Site in the Nation

Posted: Fri 3:37 PM, Jan 13, 2012

The Kentucky Transpark is one of only five sites in the nation to be designated one of the best manufacturing properties on CSX's rail network spanning 23 states.

Lot six at the transpark earned the CSX Select Site designation. It's 100 acres with a 108,000 square foot building that could expand to twice its size.

The chairman of the board for the Intermodal Transporation Authority, Gary Dillard, says, "Our location between Louisville and Nashville, east transportation, west transportation, north and south, a good railroad system, two good systems for that matter. And we have a good blend of people who want to come to an area like this, get out of the big cities."

The transpark is the only site in Kentucky, and one of only two sites in the southeast, to receive this CSX Select Site certification.
