BNSF Industrial Products 2026 Independence Day Operating Plan
Date
Jun 18, 2026
This year, the Independence Day holiday falls on Saturday, July 4. Train service will not be curtailed due to the holiday; however, BNSF plans to minimize the number of yard, local and road-switch assignments at terminals on Saturday, July 4, consistent with customer activity and volume demand. Connecting carriers who have reduced operations may cause delays on interline traffic.
Please refer to Demurrage Tariff 6004-C to review the free time and charges for Independence Day.
