Eastern Railroad Discussion > NS Chairman/Prez/CEO re: NS interest in Pan AmDate: 07/30/20 05:16 NS Chairman/Prez/CEO re: NS interest in Pan Am Author: JPB So NS Q2 2020 earnings announcement was yesterday 7/29/20 - results were ugly with major revenue and earnings declines (as with the other Cl 1's).
Here is the Pan Am relevant piece of the earnings analyst conference call (the last question asked during the call):"Is NS interested in buying the railroad? And what would the impact of a sale to another Class I railroad have on Norfolk Southern’s joint venture with Pan Am in the Pan Am Southern, which provides NS with access to the Boston area?“Well, Pan Am Southern is an important part of our network,” Squires says. “It is our presence in New England and we’re committed to maintaining a presence in New England as part of our overall network footprint. And let me leave it at that.” Preso:https://seekingalpha.com/article/4361952-norfolk-southern-corporation-2020-q2-results-earnings-call-presentation?source=content_type:react|section:All|sectionAsset:News|first_level_url:symbol|button:Title|lock_status:No|line:2Con call transcript: https://seekingalpha.com/article/4361970-norfolk-southern-corporation-nsc-ceo-jim-squires-on-q2-2020-results-earnings-call-transcriptThe following slide deck was published by Norfolk Southern Corporation in conjunction with their 2020 Q2 earnings call.

Date: 07/30/20 09:07 Re: NS Chairman/Prez/CEO re: NS interest in Pan Am Author: ctillnc There's an old joke about a lawyer. The punch line goes something like everything he said is true but it tells you absolutely nothing.

I would think they would keep as far as Portland though, as they could possibly build another IM yard if necessary closer to Boston or Portland.

Yes, it's nonanswer but it tells you everything that anyone will be allowed to know right now which is that NS is engaged in the subject and they are not ready to make a public statement. I'm sure Jim Squires will have a lot more to say when NS is ready to go public. This has nothing to do with being a lawyer.

Seems like Lowell or Lawrence would be a better place for that. Closer to Boston, and there's already a local running. |
