About this app

RailPASS is a BNSF Railway mobile application designed to create an efficient and expedited gate experience for truck drivers who need to drop off, pick up or locate a shipment at a BNSF Intermodal Facility.

From RailPASS, you can:
• Input shipment details directly through the RailPASS app to avoid having to manually enter information at the intermodal facility kiosk. This feature will reduce time spent at the kiosk by eliminating screen requests and touches – cutting current entrance gate times by more than half.
• Have up-to-date status information on shipments assigned to you once it is in your personalized My Units screen.
• Update Parking: You will have the ability to update your assigned parking location directly through the RailPASS app eliminating the need to call your dispatcher or flag down a yard checker when there is an existing shipment in a designated spot.

Ratings and reviews

Works alright most of the time but it no longer changes the information when I report where I park my container.

The app would be great if it worked properly. Ever since the last update the "blocked for your safety" has become an issue. Before the update you could back out of it, now you have to restart the app. I'm assuming its supposed to come on while driving but that seems to be the only time it doesn't come on. Sitting at the in/outgate or in a spot reporting parking or attempting to set up an outgate and it comes on and has to be restarted. Works perfectly fine while driving looking for an empty.

Only problem i see with it is when u try to request a lift on in lot s it sometimes cannot find gps location. When your all set up with chassi and headed towards lot s and you realize that you cannot get a location on your container it affects our time here at Lpc. We have to go all the way back to drivers assistance office to get a location and hope on way to lot s we dont get blocked by a train.
