BNSF Automotive: Memorial Day 2024 Operating Plan

Date
May 6, 2024

TRAIN SERVICE
This year, the Memorial Day holiday falls on Monday, May 27.

BNSF will operate automotive trains over the Memorial Day holiday and our automotive facilities will remain fully-staffed and open for haulaway during normal scheduled hours. 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 shipments arriving on the holiday, Monday, May 27, may experience delays of up to 24 hours.
