Canadian National (CN) and Duluth Cargo Connect announced a new alliance establishing the first rail-served intermodal container ramp in the Twin Ports of Duluth, in Minnesota and Superior Wisconsin.
Duluth Cargo Connect, a working partnership of the Duluth Seaway Port Authority and Lake Superior Warehousing, will operate the rail-served facility at the port’s Clure Public Marine Terminal.
“Opening CN’s newest intermodal location in Duluth instantly connects our region to containerized imports and exports via CN’s rail network, avoiding the congestion in large urban intermodal facilities,” said Vanta Coda, executive director of the Duluth Seaway Port Authority. Loaded import containers from ports originating on all three coasts served by CN will arrive in Duluth via CN’s rail network. The import containers can be used by Twin Ports exporters as new capacity to ship their goods to world markets.
