CSX quiz 2 Questions with complete
solution 2025/2026
Committed time of Arrival - correct answer ✔Defined as the percentage of railcars that complete their
trip on or before their scheduled arrival times for shipments are determined by the car scheduling
system.
Train Velocity - correct answer ✔The number of miles traveled (by Trains) dvided by the number of
hours to travel those miles. Measures all types of trains except yard jobs, work trains, passenger, extra
trains, and local trains.
Industrial Switching Excellence (ISE) - correct answer ✔Measures the "forst mile" and "Last mile" of a
rail car's trip plan. First mile is defined as the initial move from the customer's dock or a foreeign railroad
interchange point. Last mile is defined as the last scheduled move to a customer's dock or delivered
interchange point.
Measures three points :
- Accuracy - customer work performed as requested
-Timeliness-work performed within a pre-approved timeframe
-Cars scheduled not on work order- cars that were scheduled to handle, but were not on the work order
On duty to depart (ODt)D - correct answer ✔Number of Min. from crew on duty time to train
departure from the terminal. A measurement of the efficiency of multiple process which must take place
in order for the crew to depart the train in an optimal amont of time after reporting for duty,
Slow order run time loss (RTL) - correct answer ✔Length of time 9 measured in min) a train loses
traveling from point 'A' to point 'B' by abinding by the slow order restriction instead of traveling at the
Timetable speed. Calc. is based on slow order speed, timetable speed, length of slow order, and a factor
to account for train decelartaion and accerlation before and after the slow order.
