Norfolk Southern to reopen Louisville intermodal terminal it closed this summer

NORFOLK, Va. – Norfolk Southern will reopen its Louisville intermodal terminal to handle international containers from Virginia ports.

“With continued strong growth in the Louisville intermodal market, Norfolk Southern is pleased to announce that we will be adding terminal capacity to this growing market through the reopening of our intermodal terminal in Louisville, Ky.,” NS said in a service advisory today.

The terminal — which was closed this summer as NS shifted traffic to its Appliance Park intermodal facility in Louisville — will reopen on Oct. 4 to handle inbound traffic from Norfolk International Terminals and the Virginia International Gateway in Portsmouth.

The Port of Virginia has been handling record container volume for the past year. NS intermodal volume is up 7% this year.
