March 26 (Reuters) - Rail company CSX Corp on Tuesday said its existing coal customers should expect "potential shipment delays" after the collapse of a bridge that was struck by a massive cargo ship early Tuesday morning.

CSX owns the Curtis Bay coal pier in Baltimore, located near the site of the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge, which CSX plans to keep operational for now as it continues to "assess the circumstances," the company told Reuters in a statement.

CSX said it currently has capacity to dispatch additional trains to CSX-served coal terminals in Baltimore before it reaches pile space limits. (Reporting by Valerie Volcovici; Editing by Leslie Adler)
