About us
Our history
Our primary mission remains the same — to meet members’ financial needs with personalized service, high deposit rates and competitive loan rates while maintaining a safe and strong credit union.
Seventy years at Norris Yard
- 1956
- Federally chartered to serve persons sharing a common bond — in our case, employees of the Southern Railway System in Alabama, now known as Norfolk Southern Railroad.
- 1960s
- For many years the credit union’s office was located in the diesel shop at Norris Yard.
- Early 1970s
- A small office was constructed at our current location at 1808 2nd Avenue South in Irondale. The facility has since undergone two expansions.
- 1985
- The operating charter was amended when City of Irondale employees and Morris Shea Bridge employees requested access to our services, since both employers are located in Irondale.
- December 2017
- Our charter changed from federal to state. The modification did not affect federal deposit insurance or the way we operate, but it allowed membership growth without denying existing employer groups access for newly added employees.
“Not for profit, not for charity, but for service. Chartered in 1956.”
We look forward to serving you.
