From Road to Ramp in half the time - BNSF RailPass

The BNSF Railway has rolled out an integrated dispatch system for pickup and delivery of ocean containers and domestic equipment at their major intermodal facilities. The system called RailPass is designed to allow drivers to quickly enter and exit yards utilizing “Quick Response” technology. Cargo information is entered through a mobile application on the driver’s smart phone. The gate then issues a pickup or delivery ticket providing the location of outbound equipment or a slot for inbound loads. The app even offers emergency response within the yard, sending first responders to GPS coordinates through the driver’s phone.
