Case Study: Engineering Company reduces transport costs and carbon footprint with BNSF Logistics rail solution

Engineering company - Customer Case Study

Engineering Company needed to move four large convection boxes, two weighing 78 tons each and two weighing 66 tons each, and the original truck-based plan was driving up costs due to the extra support and specialized handling required. BNSF Logistics stepped in with an intermodal transportation solution to move the oversized equipment efficiently.

BNSF Logistics designed a rail-based move that transported the convection boxes from Oklahoma to Canada, then completed the final one-mile delivery by truck to the job site. The team also managed customs clearance and cross-border operations, creating a long-term solution for the customer while reducing the shipment’s carbon footprint compared with an all-truck move.
