Tropical Storm Delta
Oct 05, 2020
Norfolk Southern is monitoring Tropical Storm Delta, which is currently expected to impact the Gulf Coast late this week.
The New Orleans Flood Protection Authority plans to start closing the floodgates in and around New Orleans, Wednesday, Oct. 7. Shipments destined to or traveling through New Orleans will be impacted. At this time, we do not know the duration of the impact.
Precautionary actions are being taken to protect infrastructure and rail equipment is being repositioned away from low-lying areas around New Orleans. NS is working with customers located in the forecasted region to identify switching needs and with interchange partners to move certain shipments over alternate interchange gateways. Ongoing updates will be provided as this storm system progresses.
Customers with critical shipments should contact NS Customer Service at customerservice@nscorp.com.
The latest ETA and routing information are always available through AccessNS.
