According to industry articles and blogs it appears that the North Baltimore CSX Northwest Ohio Intermodal will be doing big business in the near future!
On the heels of the announced trans-ship agreement with BNSF for service to the west coast through NWO Intermodal, the news of changes in shipping lanes should bode well for volume in and out of the huge terminal in North Baltimore, Ohio
According to an article from the Journal of Commerce:
CSX has also doubled down on efforts to establish North Baltimore, Ohio, as a key intermodal hub and concentrate its energy on high-volume lanes

Also, a post on the Akron Railroad Club by blog by csander said:
CSX plans to eliminate in January intermodal drop service between 300 intermodal origin-destination pairs, including some in Cleveland, Columbus and Cincinnati.
Intermodal traffic originating or terminating in those cities will instead arrive and depart by highway and be placed on trains at the Northwest Ohio Intermodal Terminal in North Baltimore, Ohio.
