Update: Hurricane Ivan

September 16, 2004

As Hurricane Ivan moves northward, Norfolk Southern will be working to restore service in the aftermath of the storm as conditions permit.

Ivan will continue to roar onshore this morning and afternoon, though it will weaken over land with time. Significant rainfall will continue to move northward across the Southeast over the next several days. A looming threat will be the heavy rainfall across the southern Appalachians through the weekend. Significant flooding is possible across the mountainous areas of Tennessee and the western Carolinas as more than a foot of rain is likely for some areas.

Customers in the area seeking information about service in this area should contact Central Yard Operations at (800)898-4296.

For information on specific shipments, please contact the National Customer Service Center (800) 635-5768.

Enola is just west of Harrisburg, which means that the PENNSYLVANIAN and THREE RIVERS must be affected.
