We are excited to announce that we have entered into a definitive agreement with Norfolk Southern to purchase our 19th railroad. The newly created Raleigh and Fayetteville Railroad, LLC (RFCC) will operate between Raleigh, NC, and Fayetteville, NC. https://t.co/PUB1SSaOLC

We celebrate the anniversary of the enactment of the Staggers Act. This law partially deregulated railroads, fundamentally changing our country's supply chain landscape. Today, railroads are the most efficient and safe mode of transportation and the backbone of America.
