摘要

Washington-US railroads are rerouting etha- nol shipments to avoid bottlenecks in Chica- go, particularly for delivery to the East Coast, where supplies are running low, rail company officials said Thursday. David Garin, BNSF's vice president of industrial products, said Chicago-already congested as the US' busiest freight rail hub-has been severely impacted by winter weather, leading to delays on routes using interchanges there for all commodities.
