OMAHA, Neb. — Union Pacific has added Dallas and Phoenix to the lanes it is serving with on-dock international intermodal service from Houston.
“In cooperation with Port Houston, ocean carriers and Beneficial Cargo Owners (BCO) have access to rail service between Barbours Cut Container Terminal at Port Houston and 11 key Union Pacific-served markets. The on-dock operation will save customers’ time, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and simplify the end-to-end supply chain for all of our customers,” the railroad said in a customer notification on Wednesday.
UP opened the Phoenix intermodal terminal earlier this month. Last May UP said new service at Barbours Cut would provide customers direct rail access to Denver; Salt Lake City; Oakland, Calif.; Los Angeles; and El Paso, Texas.
UP also links Barbours Cut with Chicago, Memphis, Kansas City, and Laredo, Texas.
