NORFOLK, Va. — Norfolk Southern is experiencing service interruptions due to flooding conditions at Hannibal, Missouri requiring NS traffic between Decatur, IL and Kansas City, MO to be diverted to operate via St Louis, MO. At this time conditions are expected to improve and the track is estimated to be back in service on Friday March 29, 2019. Traffic is being rerouted in order to minimize the impact, however customers with shipments normally moving over this route should expect delays of 12 to 24 hours.
