BNSF WEB APPLICATION PROVIDES SHIPPERS WITH TRANSIT TIMES
Burlington Northern Santa Fe has introduced a Web-based application that allows carload customers to access estimated transit times between nearly 7,000 stations on the BNSF system.
Customers can determine scheduled carload transit time from the release or interchange of the shipment to the placement of the shipment at destination, BNSF said. Transit times are accessed through the railroad's Web site (http://www.bnsf.com). From the “Quick Links to BNSF Customer Tools,” a customer clicks on “select from list” and selects “carload transit schedule” to access information.
