BNSF has completed double tracking a 4.8 km rail section that crossed the Pecos River, in New Mexico. With the completion of this section of double track, only 6.5 km of single track remain on the 3540 km Southern Transcontinental corridor that runs from Los Angeles to Chicago.
“This new three miles of second track moves this important Southern Transcon corridor ever closer to being completely double-tracked. Just four miles of single track remain on this route connecting the West Coast to major intermodal markets such as Chicago, Dallas/Fort Worth and Kansas City,” BNSF says.
