BNSF announced new service schedules for its domestic intermodal customers to and from Chicago and St. Paul, Minn. to the Pacific Northwest. The new schedules are in direct response to market place demand and are a result of BNSF’s record capital investments along its Northern Corridor route. The new schedules will take effect September 14.
Due in large part to its investments along the north, BNSF will now be able to offer domestic intermodal service schedules designed to meet customers’ needs. The new schedules will feature Expedited service seven days a week for westbound traffic and six days a week for eastbound traffic, which is one day more than is currently offered in the marketplace for this region. BNSF will also be the only rail operator to offer Expedited service to and from Seattle.
“From 2013 through the end of this year BNSF will have invested nearly UD 3.5 billion in our Northern Region to maintain and improve our rail network to better serve our customers’ transportation needs,” said Katie Farmer, BNSF consumer products group vice president.
