To Our Customers,

Following landfall of Hurricane Sandy on Monday evening in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast regions of the U.S., Union Pacific interchange operations are current with both CSX and NS railroads at all locations. 

CSX has canceled embargoes for all points in Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Connecticut. Embargoes remain in place for all shipments--excluding automotive shipments--into and out of locations in New Jersey and parts of New York and Pennsylvania. Norfolk Southern has lifted its embargo for all locations except Elizabeth Marine and ERail, New Jersey.

CSX and NS continue to anticipate delays for shipments moving through the affected areas, as operations slowly return to normal.

We will continue to provide updates as more information becomes available.

If you have any questions please contact your Union Pacific representative.
