As Norfolk Southern Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, John Orr holds ultimate responsibility for every train on the Class I's vast network, freight and passenger. Relationships between passenger carriers and their host freight railroads aren't always harmonious, but NS has been working on improvements benefiting both. “For several months now, we've been a top performer among Class I's when it comes to host-responsible delay metrics—no small feat considering how much passenger service we host on our network,” Orr tells Railway Age Editor-in-Chief William C. Vantuono. “A more fluid network benefits everyone who touches our system, from customers to passenger services like Amtrak to communities throughout our system that experience fewer slow or stopped trains. There is a direct line between all our operational improvements and improvements in passenger rail hosting performance. And during the past two years we've forged effective partnerships with local and state passenger groups, from Pennsylvania to Virginia to North Carolina.” Orr discusses why “a reliable, consistent team is necessary for reliable, consistent service,” initiatives for “building skills and capabilities of our railroaders” and “training generational railroaders.” He describes a “root cause analysis mentality” and the “war rooms” Operations has been utilizing. “Safety is the core of everything,” he stresses. “A safe railroad is an efficient railroad.”

It's Monday, October 20th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes, written by Jonathan Clark, heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  Filling in for Adam McManus I'm Ean Leppin. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Human Rights Conference in Berlin Highlights Christian Persecution Human rights experts met in Berlin, Germany last Wednesday, highlighting the increased persecution of Christians worldwide.  The International Society for Human Rights released a new report on Christian persecution at the conference.  The report notes that Christians suffer under dictatorial states like China, Cuba, and North Korea. They remain victims of discrimination and violence without state protections in countries like Egypt, Syria, Nigeria, India, and Myanmar. And believers face persecution in Islamic republics like Afghanistan, Iran, and Pakistan.  The conference also highlighted the suffering of Ukrainian Christians under Russian occupation. Johann Matthies with the Evangelical Alliance in Germany said, “Russian occupation authorities are specifically targeting Ukrainian religious communities: they are pressuring churches to cooperate or destroying them if they refuse.” Psalm 34:15-16 says, “The eyes of the LORD are on the righteous, and His ears are open to their cry. The face of the LORD is against those who do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.” President Trump Continues Efforts to End Russian-Ukrainian War U.S. President Donald Trump continues his efforts to end the war between Russia and Ukraine. President Trump spoke over the phone with Russian President Vladimir Putin last Thursday. He then met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy at the White House last Friday. President Trump also plans on meeting with President Putin in Budapest, Hungary in the coming weeks. Listen to comments from President Trump. TRUMP: "I met with President Zelensky, as you know, today, and we had a very good meeting; very cordial meeting. In my opinion, they should stop the war immediately. You stop at the battle line, and both sides should go home, go to their families, stop the killing, and that should be it. Stop right now at the battle line. I told that to President Zelensky. I told it to President Putin. Thank you very much, everybody." Russia Proposes a Rail Tunnel Under the Bering Strait Reuters reports Russia proposed a “Putin-Trump” rail tunnel under the Bering Strait to link the two nations. The eight billion dollar proposal follows President Donald Trump's phone call with President Vladimir Putin. Russia's proposal would involve building a 70-mile rail and cargo tunnel between Alaska and Russia's eastern region of Chukotka. The plan suggested Elon Musk's Boring Company for the construction project. President Trump called the idea “interesting,” saying, “We'll have to think about that.”  Trump Moves to Reduce the Cost of IVF Last Thursday, President Donald Trump announced a deal with the pharmaceutical industry to reduce the cost of in vitro fertilization. The Trump administration hailed the move as pro-family. However, pro-life groups are criticizing the plan.  LifeSiteNews noted, “The IVF process is gravely unethical as it entails the conscious creation of scores of ‘excess' embryonic humans only to be killed and human lives being treated like commodities to be bartered over. It has been estimated that more than a million embryos are frozen in storage in the United States following IVF, and that as many as 93 percent of all embryos created through IVF are eventually destroyed.” Conservative Anglicans Split from the Church of England Conservative Anglicans formally split from the Church of England last week. The Global Anglican Future Conference, also known as GAFCON, declared itself to be the Global Anglican Communion. It will no longer participate in meetings called by the Church of England's Archbishop of Canterbury.  Sarah Mullally is the recently appointed Archbishop of Canterbury. She is the first female to hold the position and supports same-sex blessings. Bishop Laurent Mbanda is the chairman of the GAFCON Primates' Council as well as the Primate of Rwanda. He wrote, “We cannot continue to have communion with those who . . . abandoned the inerrant word of God as the final authority.” Isaiah 8:20 says, “To the law and to the testimony! If they do not speak according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.” Pew Research: Divorce Rates are Down in the U.S. And finally, Pew Research reports divorce rates, and specifically refined divorce rates, are down in the U.S. Unlike the overall divorce rate, the refined divorce rate takes into account changes in the number of people who are married at any given time.  This refined divorce rate peaked in the U.S. around 1980 at 22.6 divorces per 1,000 married women. By 2023, it had declined to 14.4 divorces per 1,000 married women.  The report noted that married men are more likely to be employed than divorced men. Also married adults have higher household incomes and hold more wealth than divorced adults.  Close And that's The Worldview on this Monday, October 20th, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  Plus, you can get the Generations app through Google Play or The App Store.

Canada must raise its level of ambition to compete in today's rapidly shifting geoeconomic and geopolitical landscape. So far on the podcast, we've focused on how diversifying oil and gas exports can strengthen Canada's power and influence. This week, we turn our attention to another strategic sector — mining. Our guest this week is Photinie Koutsavlis, Vice President of Economic Affairs and Climate Change at the Mining Association of Canada. She joins us to discuss the current state of Canada's mining industry. Here are some of the questions that Jackie and Peter asked Photinie Koutsavlis:  How large is Canada's mining sector, and what are its main products? Since the January 2020 announcement of the Canada–U.S. Joint Action Plan on Critical Minerals, what progress has been made on the ground? Has investment and production grown — and if not, what are the main barriers? Content referenced in this podcast: The Hub.ca, “Peter Tertzakian: Even if Alberta gets a new pipeline, what is next for the oil sands?” (October 4, 2025)Please review our disclaimer at: https://www.arcenergyinstitute.com/disclaimer/ Check us out on social media: X (Twitter): @arcenergyinstLinkedIn: @ARC Energy Research Institute Subscribe to ARC Energy Ideas PodcastApple PodcastsAmazon MusicSpotify

Government and industry delegates from across Northwest Europe share expertise at NORDUK meeting to support zero emission HDVs Government officials and industry representatives from seven north west European countries - Ireland, Sweden, Finland, Norway, Denmark, Netherlands and the United Kingdom - came together in Ireland on 18th September 2025 for the 2025 NORDUK meeting. Delegates discussed issues facing the Heavy-Duty Vehicle Sector, including driver shortages, decarbonisation and the regulation of the sector. Aiding the transition to zero emission HDVs The annual meeting provides an important opportunity for government officials and industry to share experiences and develop collaborative solutions to challenges facing the sector. On 19 September ATC (part of Arvato) hosted the visiting delegates at their headquarters in Dublin. The visit allowed delegates to hear about ATCs Green Logistics journey and gave delegates the chance to hear details of a real-world case study on the transition to zero emission HDVs. In September 2024 ATC announced a landmark investment of €22.5 million over five years to support a 'Driving Green Strategy'. Their ongoing transition of their fleet to battery electric power has been supported by the Zero Emission Heavy Duty Vehicle Purchase Grant scheme, funded by the Department of Transport. Minister of State with responsibility for International and Road Transport, Logistics, Rail and Ports, Séan Canney, said: "The NORDUK meetings provide a space for countries to navigate the complex challenges and opportunities we are facing through open dialogue and sharing our experiences. I'm delighted that my Department hosted the meeting this year as a demonstration of the shared commitment we all hold to advancing sustainable, efficient, and safe transport systems across Europe and beyond. "The visit to ATC by delegates was an opportunity to learn from industry about the challenges they face in transitioning to zero emission technology. This real-world experience is invaluable for policy makers as we work together to meet our climate goals." Rainer Hoerbst, Head of Green Logistics at ATC said: "At ATC we are delighted to be able showcase our Green Logistics journey to the NORDUK meeting delegates. Sharing our experiences from the first steps of emission reduction, trialling alternative fuels, investing in and subsequently successfully operating an expansive fleet of zero-tailpipe-emission trucks and vans. We are very proud of the progress which has been made towards accelerating and scaling electrical line-haul lanes across the continent through close collaboration with all relevant stakeholders. We look forward to exploring the next steps of this exciting journey!"

Send us a textMost people see train tracks and think "obstacle." Kevin Damoa sees the ultimate highway hack. After six years in the Army doing rail operations and stints at SpaceX and Northrop Grumman, he's realizing something crazy: America has 140,000 miles of rail that's basically empty while our highways are parking lots.So he's building a vehicle that doesn't care. Road congested? Jump on the rail. Train coming? Hop off and take the service road. Bad track ahead? The vehicle's sensors catch it, and you route around. It carries full shipping containers (60,000 pounds) and runs on whatever fuel you've got handy.Here's the thing: moving freight by rail costs 70% less than trucking, but nobody uses it because you need cranes, multiple vehicles, and weeks of waiting. Damoa's vehicles are eliminating all of that. Drive straight from a ship to the rail, ride to your city, drive off to the warehouse. Done.In this episode, the Glīd CEO breaks down why investors just oversubscribed his funding round, how this technology could transform shipping in developing nations, and why he calls logistics "special forces for regular people." Plus, the wild story of testing these beasts at an abandoned Kansas munitions depot.More at https://FUTR.tv Audio version at https://futr.buzzsprout.com Learn about Glīd: https://glidrail.com/ Book mentioned: The Box by Marc Levinson: https://amzn.to/46u8Rm4Click Here to Subscribe: FUTR.tv focuses on startups, innovation, culture and the business of emerging tech with weekly podcasts talking with Industry leaders and deep thinkers.Occasionally we share links to products we use.

Rail costs about $0.02 per ton mile versus about $0.10 per ton mile or more when transporting by truck. For bulk commodities, and for shipping containers rail can be much less expensive. That means that transporting a 20 foot long shipping a container by truck from Los Angeles to New York would cost about $7,500. By comparison, that same trip by rail would cost about $1,400. The savings are substantial. But once you get the rail car to the destination, you still need to switch from rail to road for the last mile, or perhaps the last few miles. This short haul trip is going to be disproportionately expensive. --------------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1)   iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613)   Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com)   LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce)   YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso)   Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com)  **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital)   Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)  

 We had the pleasure of seeing River and Rail live in our hometown awhile back, and got the bonus pleasure of being able to chat with them about their debut album, “Lovers, Enemies, Always Friends.” We also talked about how they got their name, how they became a duo, and their start that began in R&B.   Grace and Alex Fincher are Nashville-based Indie Folk/Americana duo, "River & Rail."  Possessing a voice equal parts haunting and agile, Grace brandishes a unique, captivating tone. Alex adds plaintive supporting vocals and textural acoustic guitar that weaves between the lines of Grace's poignant lyrics.  River & Rail has crafted a rich, yet close sound that leans into storytelling, dynamics, and improvised embellishment.    Be sure to check them out here:  Website: Riverandrailmusic.com  Bandcamp: River & Rail  Patreon: River & Rail  IG: Riverandrailmusic  TikTok:Riverandrail  YouTube: Riverandrailmusic  Facebook: River and Rail  And be sure to join their mailing list!

Following the regulatory changes that led to a 30% drop in express volumes from China/Hong Kong, DHL surges customs agent hiring as new tariffs confuse importers. Despite sourcing diversification driving double-digit growth from countries like Vietnam and Mexico, DHL Express is forecasting an unusually muted peak season lift of just 20% to 25%, down significantly from the typical 40% to 50% jump. Domestically, we dive into the contentious legal battle over California's Advanced Clean Trucks Rule (ACT) as the Federal goverment fires back in court over California waiver cancellation. Owner-operators, who face astronomical repair costs like $21,000 for emissions equipment on a $30,000 truck, argue that these standards dramatically drive up operating expenses, leading major associations to back regulatory rollbacks, as noted in Truckers back Trump's emissions rollback at EPA. The soft freight market highlights the intense need for financial agility, illustrated by a recent small carrier filing for Chapter 11, where their lawyer stressed that the cash needed for operations “doesn't generate itself”. This scenario emphasizes why the reliance on factoring services is now a critical lifeline for many smaller outfits struggling in the current economic environment, as detailed in Small carrier's bankruptcy spells out need for factoring. We examine how the annual corn harvest creates a short but lucrative peak season for Midwestern carriers, relying heavily on the FMCSA agricultural commodity exemption to maximize hours and earnings, as explored in How the corn harvest season changes freight networks across the Midwest. Finally, we analyze the structural shifts impacting the rails following the Union Pacific/Norfolk Southern proposed merger, where a union job guarantee meant to secure support is being widely warned against by former executives, as heard in Rail merger: Lifetime job is great “until you are stuck in it”.

On this Salcedo Storm Podcast:Check out the Third Rail!

The government is holding off on announcing plans for high-speed rail across northern England due to concerns over long-term costs, the BBC has learned. The already-delayed announcement of the scheme was expected at next week's Labour Party conference, but that will not now happen. A Labour MP told us the news is "extremely disappointing" and that Britain risked being "left behind comparable nations".The President of Syria has become the first leader of the country to address the UN General Assembly since 1967. We hear from former CIA director General David Petraeus, who as a general in Iraq had Ahmed al-Sharaa detained for fighting with the insurgency, and now calls himself a "fan".And 30 years after the BBC adaptation of Pride and Prejudice was released, we look back at its cultural legacy with the man who wrote it and woman who starred in it.

From safer trains to breaking archaic thoughts around mass transit, we got connected to Jim Cameron, the founder of The Commuter Action Group which advocates for faster, safer mass transit within the state. Cameron also served 19 years on the CT Rail Commuter Council and now writes a weekly commentary on transportation for CTMirror, called "Talking Transportation." Image Credit: Getty Images

President Donald Trump has been honoured with a second state visit to the UK. He had a stay at Windsor castle, met Esther's sister and took a trip to Chequers. But what would have given him a more realistic reflection of Great Britain? Join a queue, attend A&E, get stuck in a traffic jam…? In his column last week, Giles incurred the wrath of Times readers…again. He wrote about the inflated guesstimates of the numbers attending the Tommy Robinson march. Confused as to why readers are so annoyed, he wonders if he is still in tune with the average reader?

This week in the Rail Market Update:STB Developments: President Trump nominated Dick Closter to replace Marty Oberman on the Surface Transportation Board and renominated Michelle Schultz, while Robert Primus continues to contest his firing. These moves come as the STB prepares to weigh the proposed Union Pacific–Norfolk Southern transcontinental merger. Rail Traffic Trends: For the week ending September 13, North American rail traffic was down 0.9% y/y. Carloads declined in coal, forest products, and farm products (ex-grain), but chemicals and grains grew strongly. Intermodal fell 1.3%, largely due to weakness among U.S. western carriers. Big Picture Outlook: Recent weeks show continued carload weakness (coal, forest products, metallic ores) but some rebounds in chemicals and grains. U.S. intermodal volumes have been flat to down, with the latest week at their weakest since June, tied to softer port activity in Los Angeles and Long Beach.The Rail Market Update is hosted by FTR's Senior Analyst, Rail, Joseph Towers.  As this information is presented, you are welcome to follow along and look at the graphs and indicators yourself by downloading the PDF of the presentation.Download the PDF: https://www.ftrintel.com/rail-podcastSupport the show

Cyrus et Le Pionfesseur consacrent un épisode Sortons de Grand Jeu au jeu Les Aventuriers du Rail et à son auteur Alan R. Moon.

CSX CEO Joe Hinrichs challenges the long-standing obsession with operating ratios and pushes for volume growth, especially in high-potential areas like intermodal. He believes railroads can achieve both high profit margins and volume growth, emphasizing interline partnerships as a critical strategy to access new markets and improve service. Global trade winds are literally shifting freight patterns, with China drastically reducing its U.S. soybean imports due to trade tensions and retaliatory tariffs. This significant decrease in exports is creating a substantial drop in freight demand, particularly affecting Midwest states and potentially leading to job losses across trucking, rail, and port operations. High-stakes trade negotiations between the U.S. and South Korea, involving a proposed $350 billion South Korean investment fund aimed at underwriting U.S. shipbuilding, manufacturing, and other critical development. Despite reported stalls in discussions over foreign exchange markets and recent tensions, strategic commitments like Hanwha Group's $5 billion investment in a Philadelphia shipyard highlight re-industrialization efforts. At home, the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach are showing positive trends, reporting improved truck and rail dwell times in August 2025. This reflects strong coordination between terminals, trucking partners, and railroads, ensuring supply chains remain reliable during peak shipping season despite high cargo volumes. Uber Freight has launched its Dedicated EV Fleet Accelerator Program in partnership with Tesla. This program aims to overcome major adoption barriers for electric trucks by offering subsidized access to Tesla Semi-trucks, guaranteed freight demand, and direct operational support. We also address recent operational realities, including the temporary outage of critical FMCSA public data, which underscored the absolute importance of timely and accessible information for trucking safety and compliance. Finally, the ongoing liquidation of Yellow Corp. continues to reshape the LTL landscape, with over 200 service centers sold for nearly $2.4 billion, significantly realigning physical assets and market capacity.
