BNSF's Northtown facility in Minneapolis marks 50 years since its first railcar rolled down the hump. At the time, the new classification yard consolidated 11 smaller yards and improved rail transport time. Now home to 500 employees, it processes about 1,500 cars daily as a key gateway for agricultural and industrial products. Learn more about this historic facility's journey: https://bit.ly/4giYPGg
Today, we honor the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., whose unwavering commitment to justice and equality continues to inspire us. As Dr. King said, “There comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but he must take it because conscience tells him it is right.” At BNSF, we strive to embody these values by fostering a culture of inclusion and understanding. Through our Black Organization for Leadership Development (BOLD), we empower employees with mentorship, professional growth opportunities and meaningful community outreach. Together, we’re building the bridges of unity and understanding that Dr. King envisioned.
Heavy snowfall is common in the northern half of our network, but BNSF employees are ready to keep the trains running. ❄️ Thanks to the rotary snowplow, invented in the 19th century, we can safely clear snow from our tracks. So, who exactly invented this machine? A dentist! Read all about the origins and evolution on Rail Talk: https://bit.ly/4fWZ2i3

Our team’s efforts at its merchandise terminals led to several notable achievements, including, but not limited to: - All-time monthly dwell record for system’s entire north region (encompasses the Montana, Northwest, Twin Cities, Heartland and Powder River Divisions) - Overall hump yard dwell record, beating previous record in September of this year - Monthly dwell records set in Barstow, California; Lincoln, Nebraska; Galesburg, Illinois; and Pasco, Washington Congrats to all involved in this collective focus to strengthen service across our network, while doing so safely.
