BNSF Railway’s Belen, N.M., rail yard serves as a regional maintenance and fueling facility for trains up to 10,000 feet long.

The BNSF facility, which extends about 14,000 feet end to end, is positioned geographically from north to south. Tracks in each direction converge into one lead at both of the yard’s ends. Up to 90 trains, a day move both east and west through the system, requiring Belen to have the largest signal mast in BNSF’s Southwest Division.

Two major highways (I-25 and I-40) bisect the city, providing national access for business and industry in the city as well as for several motor freight companies operating in the Albuquerque area. New Mexico is a net-consumptive state, resulting in very competitive outgoing freight rates. For additional access points into New Mexico, explore the New Mexico Tradeport.
