Pacer, UP target auto parts

    Pacer International said it has entered into a multi-year agreement to arrange, manage and provide intermodal freight transportation services for both automotive parts and freight-all-kinds shipments between the United States, Mexico and Canada for Union Pacific Railroad.
   Pacer will also act as UP’s network logistics manager for cross-border shipments and provide rail container and chassis management services for the railroad in Mexico.
   Pacer said over the next several years, manufacturing capacity and activity are expected to increase in Mexico, and its “position in cross-border intermodal logistics coupled with its expertise and infrastructure in Mexico provide the platform for continued growth.”
