US class I railway upgrades in Alabama
Norfolk Southern is investing more than USD 200 in increasing its capacities on a major rail line in Alabama. The 3B corridor connects markets in the north and centre of the US state to the port of Mobile and destinations worldwide.
It is an important segment of Norfolk Southern's annual traffic, the railway said. The investments are expected to yield immediate returns when they begin to come online in 2025.
The programme involves a mix of terminal and track-based infrastructure and capacity enhancements, customer-specific projects north of Mobile and in other locations, yard upgrades in Wilton and a series of grade crossing improvements. (ben)
