Schneider Partners with CN Rail
GREEN BAY, Wis. — Schneider National has partnered with CN Rail to offer a new cross-border intermodal service.
The new service, called Canada Direct, aims to eliminate problems from cross-border rail moves, noted the press release, and offer truck-like service.
By capitalizing on their intermodal experience, Schneider claims it can reduce delays, and pre-clear customers’ loads to move quickly across the border.
"We put down intermodal roots in Canada more than 20 years ago," says Steve Van Kirk, senior vice president of intermodal commercial management for Schneider National.
This new relationship with CN also allows customers to receive priority placement on trains, Van Kirk added.
