BNSF Willow Springs Drayage.
BNSF Railway's Willow Springs ramp sits in Hodgkins, beside Willow Springs, southwest of the city. Cushing's owner operators pull containers from it for docks, warehouses and yards across Chicagoland, and move crosstowns between it and the other railroads' terminals. The work here runs from Cushing's Orland Park terminal; dispatch answers at any hour.
