To significantly grow intermodal business, diverting freight from truck to rail is goal No. 1 for Norfolk Southern Corp. Some automotive traffic recently generated in South Carolina is helping the Class I meet that objective.
Late last year, NS tailored containerized service for BMW Manufacturing Co. L.L.C.’s assembly plant in Greer, S.C., which prompted the automaker to convert nearly 20,000 truckloads to rail. NS now uses double-stack trains to move all the parts and components for sports activity vehicles (SAVs) assembled at the BMW plant.
