Class I railroad carriers CSX and CN said this week that they have inked a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) focused on the development of a new intermodal service into Nashville. Executive leadership at CSX and CN are optimistic about the prospects for this new intermodal service. In late August, it said it is collaborating with BNSF on various intermodal service offerings focused on coast-coast movements. Intermodal expert Larry Gross, president of Gross Transportation Consulting, told LM that these announcements come at a time when intermodal service levels are doing very well. “Service levels are great,” said Gross.
