History

BNSF Railway is the largest freight railroad in North America, formed in 1996 from the merger of the Burlington Northern Railroad and the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway. Headquartered in Fort Worth, Texas, it operates approximately 32,500 route miles across 28 U.S. states and three Canadian provinces. BNSF is one of the top transporters of intermodal freight, agricultural products, coal, and industrial goods. The railroad has been a subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway since Warren Buffett's acquisition in 2010. Its heritage railroads include the Great Northern, Northern Pacific, Chicago Burlington & Quincy, Frisco, and the storied Santa Fe, whose warbonnet paint scheme remains one of the most recognizable in railroading.
