Any history as to why CSX for the most part abandoned this line? I don't see any other heavily used CSX lines into St. Louis? Also, on Google Maps you can see a modern CTC connection built off the L&N east of Mt Vernon. Not sure what this would be?

complained about the tunnels (which I would like to know where they were/are... Indiana knobs northwest of Louisville?)
Yes it came up through Bellevue etc...
CSX has a large intermodal facility in East St Louis.
