The Burlington Northern and Santa Fe Railway Company is now offering premium intermodal trailer service between Los Angeles and San Bernardino, Calif., and Atlanta through a haulage agreement with CSX Intermodal.
The service departs Wednesday through Sunday in both directions and improves transit times by about half a day.

"In addition, we are able to provide our customers with an intermodal alternative to more expensive, over-the-road team-truck driver transportation."
With this announcement, BNSF offers seamless service between Southern California and the Northeast; Southern California and the Southeast; and Southern California and Eastern Canada.
