Union Pacific highlighted evidence supporting its proposed Norfolk Southern merger on October 19, 2026, citing a nearly 7,000-page application.
The proposed combination is projected to generate approximately $3.5 billion in annual shipper savings through lower-cost rail transportation.
New single-line service could shift approximately 2,100,000 truckloads annually from highways to rail.
The transaction would create single-line service opportunities across more than 88,000 county-to-county lanes nationwide.
Operational improvements would eliminate more than 2,550 daily railcar and container handlings, reducing rail movements by approximately 65,000 car-miles daily.
