Item 7.01.  Regulation FD Disclosure

            On November 14, 2006, James A. Squires, Senior Vice President Financial Planning, is making a presentation at the 21st Annual Citigroup Transportation Conference in New York City, providing an overview of Norfolk Southern Corporation's ("NS") recent financial performance.  The text and accompanying slides of such presentation are included as Exhibit 99 to this Form 8-K.

Statements about future results made in the materials furnished with this Form 8-K as exhibits constitute forward-looking statements that may be identified by the use of words like "believe," "expect," "anticipate" and "project."   Forward-looking statements reflect management's good-faith evaluation of information currently available.  However, such statements are dependent on and, therefore, can be influenced by, a number of external variables over which management has little or no control, including: domestic and international economic conditions; interest rates; the business environment in industries that produce and consume rail freight; competition and consolidation within the transportation industry; fluctuation in prices or availability of key materials, in particular diesel fuel; labor difficulties, including strikes and work stoppages; legislative and regulatory developments; changes in securities and capital markets; disruptions to NS' technology infrastructure, including its computer systems; and natural events such as severe weather, hurricanes and floods. For more discussion about each risk factor, see Part I, Item 1A "Risk Factors" in NS' Dec. 31, 2005, Form 10-K, and any updates contained in subsequent Forms 10-Q.   Forward-looking statements are not, and should not be relied upon as, a guarantee of future performance or results, nor will they necessarily prove to be accurate indications of the times at or by which any such performance or results will be achieved.  As a result, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements.   NS undertakes no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements.
