No more Z's to Seattle.

Accordingly, BNSF has lost their contract with UPS due to poor service. As of three days ago, BNSF ran its first Q CHCSSE* in over 10 years. Now the question is, Will we see the return of the Q SSEPTL**?



* Q CHCSSE is the BNSF symbol for "Guaranteed Service" from Chicago IL to South Seattle WA.
** Q SSEPTL was the BNSF "Guaranteed Service" Intermodel train From South Seattle WA to Portland OR. they stopped running that when i was about five, Which would be around 2005-2006.

That's been rumor since early 2000s, that they lost contract for the transcon Z service... I just saw a ZCHCSSE the other day at work...

Probably the last ones to ensure shipments. checking ODIS reveals Q trains from Chicago heading to Seattle.

How do you have access to odis? It is my duty to report breaches like this if you aren't an employee.
