INLAND RAIL TRANSIT ADVISORIES
We are also experiencing congestion at all major rail facilities in Chicago, Columbus, and Los Angeles UP and BNSF rail ramps. We expect delays in picking-up and delivering containers at these locations.
U.S. East Coast
- No new issues highlighted
U.S. Midwest
- Chicago/Dallas Import - Due to congestion at destination ramps and accumulating backlog of cargo at origin ports, delays are to be expected in origin departure from Long Beach and Oakland for rail deliveries to the Chicago and Dallas/Fort Worth areas. Please arrange for timely pick up of all arriving import units at destination to assist with drive for operations fluidity.
- Chassis Shortage – Chassis deficits continue to be observed on a weekly basis in Chicago. TRAC chassis can be utilized as our approved secondary provider. Please assist with the return on any dwelling equipment in these locations to mitigate continued equipment limitations.
- BNSF Logistics Park (Chicago) – Have removed all destination specific ingate restrictions. All destinations including LGB ITS will be open for receiving during normal published hours of operations.
- Detroit NS – NS Livernois has REMOVED the restriction surrounding export allocations.
U.S. West Coast

TRUCK ORDER LEAD TIME (DAYS)
Due to the increased volume, we are experiencing reduced trucking capacity in most areas in North America. This will result in delays picking up and delivering cargo. Please reference trucking dispatch heat chart to indicate dispatching time for each major area.
Note: Truck Order Lead Time (days) = Number of days lead time required to secure truck capacity. 2 days is standard/considered normal.
