BNSF Railway and CSX Corporation announced on August 22, 2025, a new partnership to launch three new intermodal services, establishing seamless coast-to-coast rail service across the U.S. This collaboration aims to enhance freight transportation efficiency and reach.
One of the new services will connect Southern California to key markets on the East Coast, specifically Charlotte, North Carolina, and Jacksonville, Florida. A second new service will link Phoenix to Atlanta, expanding intermodal options for customers in these regions.
This strategic move comes amidst heightened merger speculation in the rail industry, following Union Pacific and Norfolk Southern's proposed transcontinental merger. The partnership between CSX and BNSF demonstrates a focus on interline cooperation to create competitive service offerings.
