BNSF Railway and Norfolk Southern are launching a redesigned intermodal service that reduces transit time from the Pacific Northwest to Chicago by three days, now totaling six days, which is the fastest from any PNW gateway. This service aims to enhance rail coverage for joint customers while lowering transportation costs. It includes a seamless transfer of cargo in Chicago, allowing for efficient movement to inland markets. The collaboration promises improved reliability and reduced variability, encouraging a shift from highway to rail transport, benefiting shippers in 2025 and beyond.
