Schneider Launches Intermodal Service in Barstow, California
GREEN BAY, WI… Schneider, a premier provider of truckload, intermodal and logistics services, has recently begun offering intermodal services at the BNSF Barstow, California, ramp. This new intermodal ramp service provides shippers in the eastern region of Southern California, Las Vegas and western Arizona with a cost-competitive transportation option to Chicago and northeastern U.S. markets.
Service to and
from the Barstow ramp will go directly to Chicago five days per week. It offers
a five-day transit time that’s cost and service competitive with truckload. The
new ramp is located just northeast of San Bernardino, California, only 150
miles from Las Vegas.
“San Bernardino
has experienced a lot of growth in recent years, creating capacity issues for
shippers in the region,” says Jim Filter, senior vice president and general manager of
Schneider’s Intermodal division. “We’re pleased that our intermodal
service through the Barstow ramp provides a new option that delivers more
capacity at a competitive rate and reliable transit times.”
With the addition
of the new Barstow ramp, Schneider now offers intermodal service to more than
40 ramps throughout North America.
