There are 554 railroads operating in the US (circa 2002), classified into five groups. The Class I rairoads account for some 90% of the employees and some 70% of the mileage: - Burlington Northern and Santa Fe (BNSF). - CSX Transportation (CSX). - Grand Trunk Corporation (owned by Canadian National). - Kansas City Southern (KCS). - Norfolk Southern (NS). - The Soo Line (owned by Canadian Pacific). - Union Pacific. If I am not mistaken, the UP is the largest carrier in terms of tonnage. If not the UP, then the BNSF. With information from the US Federal Railroad Administration (FRA).
