In a document posted to the STB’s website Jan. 16, the agency said Union Pacific’s application to acquire Norfolk Southern was rejected, but it could be revised and refiled.

CSX, BNSF Railway, Canadian Pacific Kansas City Southern and Grand Trunk Railroad filed requests last week that the Surface Transportation Board reject Union Pacific’s application.

More than 60 trade associations and chambers of commerce submitted a letter to the Surface Transportation Board last week opposing Union Pacific's proposed acquisition of Norfolk Southern.
