COMMUNITY EVENT REQUEST

For operational and security reasons, Norfolk Southern trains will only be slowed – not stopped. We rarely slow or stop train traffic for an event. 

To help keep everyone safe, Norfolk Southern strongly recommends that organizers make every effort to avoid sites near railroad tracks and other railroad property when planning public events such as festivals, parades, and races.
