CN and CSX Collaborate to Launch New Intermodal Rail Service into Nashville

CN and CSX Collaborate to Launch New Intermodal Rail Service into Nashville

HOMEWOOD, Ill. and JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Sept. 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CN (TSX: CNR) (NYSE: CNI) and CSX (NASDAQ: CSX) today announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to develop a new intermodal service into Nashville, Tennessee.

This service will provide customers with a seamless, all-rail alternative for international containers moving from Canada’s West Coast gateways through Memphis directly into Nashville. By replacing the current trucking leg with a steel-wheel interchange, CN and CSX will be able to deliver faster, more reliable, and more sustainable supply chain solutions for customers.

“This agreement allows us to expand our reach, enabling our customers to efficiently access more markets. Collaboration like this benefits everyone; railroads, customers, and communities, by driving growth, reliability, optionality, and sustainability.”

-  Janet Drysdale, Interim Chief Commercial Officer, CN

“At CSX, we’re committed to working with our interchange partners to create solutions that deliver mutual value and expand the options available to customers. This new service with CN provides a faster and more sustainable all-rail option into Nashville, helping shippers strengthen their supply chains while reducing truck traffic on our highways.”

-  Kevin Boone, Executive Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer, CSX

The collaboration builds on both companies’ proven track record of successful interline agreements, including its already long-standing partnership on the East Coast, serving the ports of New York, New Jersey and Philadelphia started in 2019.

CN Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements by CN included in this news release constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and under Canadian securities laws. By their nature, forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. CN cautions that its assumptions may not materialize and that current economic conditions render such assumptions, although reasonable at the time they were made, subject to greater uncertainty. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of terminology such as “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “assumes,” “outlook,” “plans,” “targets,” or other similar words. Forward-looking statements reflect information as of the date on which they are made. CN assumes no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect future events, changes in circumstances, or changes in beliefs, unless required by applicable securities laws. In the event CN does update any forward-looking statement, no inference should be made that CN will make additional updates with respect to that statement, related matters, or any other forward-looking statement.

CSX Forward-looking Statements

Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words or phrases such as “will,” “should,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “project,” “estimate,” “preliminary” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and CSX undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement. If CSX updates any forward-looking statement, no inference should be drawn that CSX will make additional updates with respect to that statement or any other forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, and actual performance or results could differ materially from that anticipated by any forward-looking statements. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by any forward-looking statements include, among others: (i) CSX's success in implementing its financial and operational initiatives; (ii) changes in domestic or international economic, political or business conditions, including those affecting the transportation industry (such as the impact of industry competition, conditions, performance and consolidation); (iii) legislative or regulatory changes; (iv) the inherent business risks associated with safety and security; (v) the outcome of claims and litigation involving or affecting CSX; (vi) natural events such as severe weather conditions or pandemic health crises; and (vii) the inherent uncertainty associated with projecting economic and business conditions.
