Norfolk Southern: The first class one railroad to haul school buses by rail!

NORFOLK, VA; NEWBURGH, NY; WASHINGTONVILLE, NY
Norfolk Southern Corp announced early Saturday morning that it had entered a deal with the Washingtonville Central School District in Washingtonville, New York. The deal allows them to haul new school buses to their bus lot and remove old buses to be sold or scrapped as needed. Under the contract, money to pay for the siding will come out of the budget of the district in conjunction with NS’ own budget. The trackage to make this possible is the ex – Erie Graham Line, presently under NS control and known as the Northern Tier Line. Service is slated to begin immediately.
