American Honda Motors recently recognized BNSF Railway Co. for “outstanding teamwork” in the Western Region.

The automaker cited BNSF’s “superior quality transportation and damage-free delivery” in conjunction with Pacific Motor Trucking, Selland Auto Transport, and Inter-Rail Transport in Richmond, Calif.

BNSF places a high priority on damage-free and on-time transportation for every vehicle, said Marc Allen, BNSF assistant vice president of automotive marketing, in a prepared statement.

Meanwhile, The Bon-Ton Stores Inc. presented its 2007 Award for Transportation Excellence to Schneider National Intermodal.

The award recognizes the transportation and logistics service provider’s on-time pickup and delivery, and customer service efforts.

“Schneider stepped in and showed us how we could use intermodal services to help get products into our stores,” said Robert Hook, divisional vice president-transportation for first-time intermodal user Bon-Ton Stores. “After a successful trial run, we implemented Schneider Intermodal into our day-to-day transportation plan and have shifted a significant amount of freight to rail.”
