Canadian National and Norfolk Southern set to launch new domestic intermodal service. Two major Class I railroad carriers heralded a new intermodal service last month, with Montreal-based Canadian National Railway (CN) and Atlanta-based Norfolk Southern (NS) announcing that their new domestic intermodal service will make its debut on October 2. CN and NS officials said that this new service "will provide customers with an integrated, market-competitive, and efficient all-rail service." And they added that this service will connect CN-served Canadian markets with Norfolk Southern-served Kansas City and Atlanta, which they referred to as the heart of the fast-growing manufacturing and consumer base in the Southeastern U.S. "This new CN-Norfolk Southern Domestic Intermodal service combines premier intermodal choices for our shared customers," said NS president and CEO Alan Shaw. "Designed with customer-centricity top of mind, it simplifies their processes, enabling smoother rail shipments between Canada, Kansas City, and Atlanta." |
