CRITTENDEN COUNTY, Ark. - The Union Pacific rail yard located just west of Marion in Crittenden County could benefit from a possible U.S. rail merger. West Memphis Economic Development Director Ward Wimbish said the rail yard project is in the planning stages, and the timing of its completion would match a proposed merger between Union Pacific and Norfolk Southern railroads. The proposed new industrial rail yard property is located adjacent to the existing intermodal yard. The proposed merger is currently going through its due diligence. That includes environmental and engineering surveys and the logistics of connecting a rail line to the site.
