BNSF Automotive: 2025 Labor Day Operating Plan

Date
Aug 11, 2025

This year, the Labor Day holiday falls on Monday, September 1. BNSF will operate automotive trains over the Labor Day holiday and our automotive facilities will remain fully staffed and open for haulaway during normal scheduled hours. Connecting carriers who have reduced operations for the holiday may cause delays on interline traffic. As a result, we anticipate some extending of our service schedules as we consolidate volumes to fill trains. We expect shipments arriving on the holiday, Monday, September 1, may experience delays of 24 hours
