JACKSONVILLE, Fla. and FORT WORTH, Texas, Aug. 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CSX Corporation (NASDAQ: CSX) (CSX) and BNSF today announced several new intermodal service products that will offer customers seamless, efficient, coast-to-coast solutions to ship between the western and eastern U.S.
New services will include:
- The introduction of new, coast-to-coast, direct domestic intermodal services between Southern California and Charlotte, North Carolina and Jacksonville, Florida.
