Norfolk Southern Corp. recently launched NSites, a GIS-based search engine designed to help shippers, developers and others more easily locate rail-served industrial sites and transload facilities in the east. The portal provides comprehensive information about industrial sites near NS’ lines, including 800 available properties in the railroad’s 22-state territory. All the sites are verified as rail accessible by NS or one of its short-line partners. In addition, NSites offers the ability to locate 250 transload facilities in key U.S. eastern markets. This video provides more details about the new portal, such as how to use its search functions.
