Join fellow rail executives for an exclusive webcast: Rail’s Great Experiment, the Cult of OR & New Battle Lines Webcast. It promises invaluable insights into the current dynamics of the railroad industry, particularly the ongoing developments at Norfolk Southern, and other critical factors influencing the sector.
Hosted by Progressive Railroading's Editor-in-Chief Pat Foran, this webcast features independent transportation industry analyst and Progressive Railroading columnist Tony Hatch, renowned for his astute observations and no-holds-barred assessments. Hatch will delve into the headline-heavy first quarter in rail, with a specific focus on Ancora's push for leadership changes at Norfolk Southern.
What do these disruptions and diversions mean for the North American intermodal market? Who stands to benefit from the trade pattern shifts, and who doesn't? Could we see a return to 2021 supply chain congestion or a return to scarcity? Or have port and rail improvements helped to provide a better way (or ways) forward?
