This work transformed one of the busiest junctions in our network to move freight safer, faster, and more reliably.
At Birmingham’s 14th Street junction, we replaced outdated elements with modern turnouts, signals, and track panels. The final phase was completed in just 48 hours, with 140 railroaders working together. 💪 (seen here)
The impact:
✅ Tripled NS train speeds
✅ Smoother operations through a vital interlocking
✅ Reduced traffic congestion for the surrounding community
Now, up to 70 trains a day move through this critical corridor, helping keep America’s supply chain on rolling. 🇺🇸
