Welcome to the BNSF Carbon Estimator

To increase the understanding of how shipping by rail versus long-haul trucking can have a positive impact on the environment, we have created this Carbon Estimator tool.

This tool provides an estimate of a company's transportation carbon footprint for its BNSF rail shipments. Shippers can enter BNSF shipment numbers, or specific lane comparisons, and compare their carbon footprint size to what it would have been if they shipped by truck only. Learn more
