Charles “Wick” Moorman says he was a kid who loved trains.
At age 18, while studying civil engineering at Georgia Tech in 1970, he got a “co-op,” or internship Southern Railway, the precursor to Norfolk Southern Railroad.
Moorman stepped down in 2013 as president and CEO of Norfolk Southern, a 30,000-employee company that’s the nation’s fourth-largest railroad. He’s still executive chairman of the board.
