Northwest Ohio Terminal starts operations

The facility is expected to become a major transfer point handling around 2 million containers annually, including blocks of multiple rail wagons with a common destination and container lifts between rail wagons and trucks

“This is a major milestone for the National Gateway and great news for customers across CSX’s rail network,” said Bill Clement, vice president of intermodal, CSX Transportation, adding that the facility will provide a faster and more reliable intermodal service.

CSX will gradually move customer shipments through the new terminal over the next few months.
