Western Railroad Discussion > BNSF and UP CustomersDate: 03/22/17 13:19 BNSF and UP Customers Author: mearsksealand While watching the Final Four basketball last Saturday I kept a log of the various customers using the BNSF and UP. This is a very scentific study done from my rocking chair in front of TV. viewing the Cajon Webcam. Viewed a total of 17 BNSF--15 Intermodal---UP 5 trains three intermodal
The survey is some what tilted to the BNSF as the UP doesn't run that many trains over Cajon Pass. BNSF International Customers Maersk Safmarine division of Maersk Hamburg-Sud division of Maersk MSC Hyundia------All above make up 2M Alliance CMA-CGM Cosco OOCL China Shipping-----all above make up Ocean Alliance also Evergreen--UP customer MOL UASC---purchased by Hapag-Lloyd Yang Ming----all above make up The Alliance which also includes NYK Kline Hapag Lloyd UP customers Matson Horizon BNSF Domestic Customers J B Hunt Swift Schneider C H Robinson Alliance Shippers Prime Intermodal Fedex--All div YRC Dart KLLM Crowley ABF UPS Walmart ESTES CSX R&L Covenant Knight Celedon Marten NYK Logistics APL Logistics Bold Transport America K&R Frozen Food Express UP Inernational K Line The Alliance MSC 2m alliance Hamburg -SUD div Maersk 2M Alliance APL CMA-CMG---APL CMA-CMG same company Ocean Alliance Hapag-Lloyd --The Alliance Cosco Ocean Alliance Mol The Alliance Matson Evergreen Ocean Alliance UP Domestic Prime Intermodal YRC XPO(PACER) Hub CSX UPS JB Hunt With the exception of HUB Cities XPO the others listed do not give the volume to UP vs BNSF Thats it for this scentific study from the rocking chair Dale Smith Edited 1 time(s).

I keep the sports box separate, but watching several UP hot spots not named Cajon Pass from the comfort of my computer chair they pretty much handle all the domestic truckers you listed for BNSF except I've not seen any Schneider or CH Robinson. Have seen Southern Refrigerated Express and on the LATC-Brooklyn traffic, DSV and Market Transport. The volume is much less than the BNSF, of course.

Date: 03/22/17 22:29 Re: BNSF and UP Customers Author: spwolfmtn Likely that the UP train carrying the domestic stuff that BNSF usually handles was the ZLADV or ISC(whatever LA terminal this train goes too..) since BNSF doesn't serve that lane out of California?

Dale Smith Date: 03/23/17 08:47 Re: BNSF and UP Customers Author: ntharalson Interesting that there are no Schneider listings for UP. When Schneider first went to rail service,
they had an exclusive contract with the SP. Within six months of that, the orange trailers and boxes were showing up on the Santa Fe/BNSF. I'm pretty sure Hub Group went to UP because of price, cheaper than BNSF, but I'm wondering why Schneider deserted UP.

Schneider stopped shipping with the UP in January 2008 when most of the contract went to the BNSF. Before that, Schneider's business seemed to be split between the two roads depending on the lane being used. There were a few exceptions to that as Schneider continued to do business with UP on the I-5 Z trains and a few other areas for a while longer, but that business is long gone now.

I hadn't seen K&R before, and Knight I've only seen on UP. You had a good day in the armchair!
