CSX Transportation and Schneider continue partnership for intermodal transport

Schneider, a transport, intermodal and logistics services provider, has agreed to a new multiyear agreement with railway company CSX Transportation. Under the agreement the rail operator will continue to serve as one of Schneider’s primary rail providers. The agreement sustains the ability for Schneider to serve the Eastern United States as the demand for intermodal transportation increases.
CSX became Schneider’s primary Eastern rail provider in 2008. Since then, the organizations have continued to enhance their performance to deliver “truck-like” service to shippers. The agreement provides Schneider customers with capacity and operational interfaces that are designed to increase accessibility and efficiency of rail moves. Additionally, capital investments that CSX has made in projects such as the Northwest Ohio Intermodal Terminal have improved its infrastructure and facilitated expanded service offerings to the most Eastern origins and destinations.
“There is significant opportunity to optimize modal selection and convert freight from highway to rail in the Eastern U.S. CSX continues to invest in the intermodal growth opportunity, and we are excited to extend our relationship with Schneider as they truly are a premier intermodal provider. CSX and Schneider share a strong commitment to safety and customer service and to enhancing supply chain solutions for shippers,” said Dean Piacente, vice president-intermodal of CSX Transportation.
