Title: CSX Corporation and BNSF Launch New US Intermodal Freight Services

CSX Corporation and Berkshire Hathaway's BNSF have announced the launch of new intermodal freight services, which will operate on a network spanning 57,194 kilometers across the US and Canada. The new services will complement CSX's existing railroad transport services, which include the transport of chemicals, coal, agricultural products, and other goods [1].

The new intermodal services will feature direct domestic intermodal services connecting Southern California to Charlotte, North Carolina, and Jacksonville, Florida. Additionally, a new service between Phoenix, Arizona, and Atlanta, Georgia, will aim to convert over-the-road (OTR) freight to rail. International intermodal services will also be introduced between the Port of New York and New Jersey, Norfolk, Virginia, and Kansas City. To support these services, two new 10,000-foot sidings will be established between Phoenix and Flagstaff [1].

These new services are designed to enhance shipping efficiency and provide greater flexibility and value for customers. By streamlining service across key markets, CSX and BNSF aim to deliver more integrated and reliable freight solutions. Further details on these services are expected to be released soon [1].

CSX Corporation, based in Jacksonville, Florida, is a premier transportation company that provides rail, intermodal, and rail-to-truck transload services to customers across various markets. BNSF, based in Fort Worth, Texas, is one of North America's leading freight transportation companies, operating approximately 32,500 route miles of track in 28 states and three Canadian provinces [1, 2].
