Norfolk Southern Corporation (NSC) is a Fortune 500 transportation company which operates in the eastern United States and Canada. It was created in 1982 when two railroads, Norfolk and Western Railway and Southern Railway merged. NSC first began operations as a subsidiary of Norfolk and Western Railway in 1982, serving mainly to compete with the rapid expansion of CSX Transportation. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, NSC began expanding its operations outside of the east coast to compete with other regional railroads and to enter markets that had previously been inaccessible. In 1997, Norfolk Southern Corporation merged with Conrail, gaining access to key eastern markets such as Delaware, Michigan, and New York. This merger was largely successful, and allowed Norfolk Southern to become one of the largest and most influential railroads in the United States. Since its founding, Norfolk Southern has continually expanded its operations with numerous mergers, acquisitions, and subsidiary companies that have enabled the company to significantly increase its customer base and become a leader in the transportation industry. Additionally, the company has adopted various green initiatives such as the adoption of electric locomotives and the use of renewable energy sources in its operations.
Norfolk Southern’s mission is to provide value to customers through safety, superior service, efficiency, and innovative solutions.
Norfolk Southern’s vision is to be the premier transportation provider, connecting America’s customers to their business opportunities.
