PROFILE |
 |
Burgeoning Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) is the second-largest railroad in the US, behind Union Pacific. The company had planned to get bigger still by merging with Canadian National Railway, but the deal was canceled after US regulators imposed a moratorium on rail mergers. BNSF operates about 33,500 track miles in 28 states, mainly west of the Mississippi, and in Canada. A big revenue generator is its intermodal freight business (shipping by a combination of truck, train, or ship), which accounts for 29% of sales. BNSF's carload business (chemicals, forest products, metals, minerals, machinery, and consumer goods) accounts for 28%.
