Posted Date: January 8, 2025

To our Premium Intermodal Customers:

Effective today, we have enhanced our van notification process at our Twin Cities Intermodal Terminal (TCIT) that will significantly improve your overall experience. In the past, inbound containers underwent a multi-step process prior to van notification. Going forward, once the rail car is spotted to the ramp tracks, the container will be made available, and you will receive the van notification immediately. This allows inbound units to be transferred to a chassis sooner and be ready for driver pickup.  

This expedited process is designed to increase terminal efficiency and deliver a superior experience for customers and drivers. We're committed to optimizing our services to meet your needs and providing you with the quickest and most reliable logistics solutions.

Thank you for choosing Union Pacific for your Twin Cities intermodal needs. If you have any questions, please contact your Union Pacific sales representative.
