The Burlington Northern and Santa Fe Railway Company (BNSF) and Ferrocarril Mexicano (Ferromex) announced they have improved their transborder service by significantly reducing transit times between major U.S. and Canadian markets and Mexico. The improved service is an attempt to increase competition with road-shipping companies. The new transportation network now extends from Guadalajara and Mexico City to major North American markets--including all of California, Chicago, Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York City and large Canadian cities. Richard Miller, assistant vice president of the Mexican branch of BNSF said in published remarks, "The new service offers seven- or eight-day transit time between Los Angeles or Chicago to and from Mexico City and Guadalajara. This matches transit times offered by over-the-road service providers today."
