Mexico-USA-Canada intermodal service launched
Canadian National Railways (CN), Union Pacific Railroad (UP) and Grupo Mexico (GMXT) have launched the Premium intermodal service, linking Mexico with USA and Canada. It offers a seamless rail connection in Chicago, Illinois (USA), with direct routes between all CN origin points within Canada and Detroit, Michigan to GMXT terminals in Mexico.
According to the partners, Premium will directly benefit intermodal customers shipping automotive parts, food, FAK (freight all kinds), home appliances, and temperature-controlled products and allow the maximisation of lading weights between Mexico/Canada.
The service will also lower greenhouse gas emissions through reduced rail miles and significant truck-to-rail conversion. (ben)
