BNSF Railway Co. is suing the city of Gunter, Texas, in a dispute over the railroad’s proposed 900-acre North Dallas Logistics Center, according to a Dallas Morning News report.

The Class I has been interested in a potential site for the logistics center in Gunter for the past year, the newspaper reported yesterday. But a newly elected city council is now fighting against the development.

BNSF, which filed its lawsuit in the 15th District Court of Grayson County, alleges that Gunter has violated a number of state laws in its recent pushback against the logistics center. A BNSF spokesperson declined to comment to the newspaper, citing the railroad’s policy of not commenting on pending litigation.
