Norfolk Southern’s Intermodal network and team are critical to the company’s long-term success and plans for growth. In a look to the future, Norfolk Southern EVP and Chief Marketing Officer Ed Elkins recently shared a comment with CNBC about the importance of our Intermodal franchise:

“Strategic corridor investments and the opening of a dozen new intermodal facilities since 2014 have created the capacity and productivity to support volume growth on our network. As the global economy becomes even more reliant on the East Coast for supply chain needs, we see great possibility for smart, sustainable growth, and our customer-centric, operations-driven approach is going to help us deliver for our customers and the marketplace.”
