Federal board sides with Navajo coal company, says BNSF Railway must ship to Canadian port
A federal board has sided with one of the largest coal producers in the United States in a contract dispute with a major freight railroad, ordering BNSF Railway to transport at least 4.2 million tons of coal this year for overseas use. The U.S. Surface Transportation Board’s 3-2 order last week said BNSF has the ability to fulfill the contract and still meet the needs of other shippers. The Navajo Transitional Energy Co. sought the order in April.
