BNSF Automotive: 2020 Independence Day Operating Plan

Date
Jun 25, 2020

TRAIN SERVICE
BNSF's Automotive 2020 Independence Day operating plan will remain focused on meeting customers' expectations while matching operations to any reductions in traffic volumes. This year, BNSF will recognize the Independence Day holiday on Friday, July 3 and Saturday, July 4, 2020.

BNSF will operate automotive trains over the Independence Day holiday. Some automotive facility gates will be closed on Saturday, July 4. Please see the attached facility schedule. Connecting carriers who have reduced operations for the holiday may cause delays on interline traffic. Due to lighter traffic volumes over the holiday, we anticipate some extending of our service schedules as we consolidate volumes to fill trains. We expect that shipments from Friday, July 3 through Monday, July 6 may experience delays of up to 24 hours.
