NARSTCO Wins Norfolk Southern Thoroughbred Sustainability Award for the Second Time
Midlothian, TX (Dec. 17, 2025) – NARSTCO, North America’s leading manufacturer of sustainable steel ties, turnouts, and e-clips, has been selected by Norfolk Southern as a winner of the Thoroughbred Sustainability Partner Award in the Environmental Stewardship category, for a second time. This recognition honors partner companies demonstrating exceptional leadership in Energy Efficiency, Innovation, and Environmental Stewardship.
NARSTCO is committed to manufacturing long-lasting, sustainable track products using recycled steel sourced primarily from end-of-life automobiles. One scrap vehicle produces enough material for approximately five steel ties. All NARSTCO steel ties, turnouts, and e-clips are produced at the company’s Midlothian and Cedar Hill, Texas facilities. Norfolk Southern has incorporated NARSTCO products across major intermodal yards, lead tracks, siding extensions, and yard support projects throughout its network.
“As a company built on sustainability and long-term value, it’s an honor to be recognized by Norfolk Southern for the work our teams put in every day,” said Nick Delmonico, Director of Sales at NARSTCO. “This award reinforces the confidence our customers place in steel products that reduce environmental impact and deliver decades of performance. We’re proud to support Norfolk Southern’s commitment to a more sustainable and resilient rail network.
Norfolk Southern will honor the winners at a ceremony at its headquarters in Atlanta in February 2026.
