With the opening of an intermodal terminal in McKees Rocks, Pennsylvania, the Port of Virginia will service PA and Ohio by double stack trains. CSX Transportation has funded the project to connect East Coast markets to businesses in the Midwest. The Port of Virginia is the East’s leading rail port. This new terminal will increase the current rail volume of 36% significantly. Last fiscal year the port moved nearly 600,000 containers by rail.
