Triple Crown cutting routes, jobs
 
September 18, 2015 

NORFOLK, Va. — Expect to see fewer RoadRailer trailers in the coming months as Triple Crown Services cuts back on jobs, trailers, and routes.

In a statement early Friday morning, Norfolk Southern says it will restructure its Triple Crown Service subsidiary by laying off as many as 200 of its 240-person workforce and pair back the routes RoadRailer trailers travel on to just a single lane. That is expect to be a Detroit to Kansas City-area routing that hauls mostly auto parts.
