Coverage

How far we run from Inland Drive

From Kansas City we cover Missouri, Kansas, Iowa, Nebraska, and Arkansas, and we work every active rail ramp in the metro with our own trucks and chassis.

Some Kansas City ramps have no chassis on site. Norfolk Southern’s Voltz Yard is one of them. Because we bring our own, that is not a problem you have to solve and not a delay you have to explain to your customer.

  • 20, 40, and 45 foot chassis
  • Tri-axle any-sizers for overweight boxes

Why Kansas City matters

Five Class I railroads in one gateway

Kansas City is one of the most connected intermodal gateways in North America. Five Class I railroads serve it: BNSF, Union Pacific, Norfolk Southern, CSX, and CPKC. That gives you real routing options, and it also gives you five different sets of gate rules to keep straight. We work all of them, so you get the options without the coordination.

Questions we get

Frequently asked questions

Where is Mark-It Express’s Kansas City terminal?

The Mark-It Express Kansas City terminal is located at 6759 Inland Drive, Kansas City, KS 66106. Phone: 816-398-2106.

Which Kansas City ramp is best for West Coast imports?

BNSF LPKC accepts the widest range of steamship lines and is open 24/7. The UP Kansas City Intermodal Terminal (Armourdale, opened July 2025) adds in-city West Coast capacity with 24/7 gates and faster truck gating via UP’s PGT system.

Which Kansas City ramp is best for East Coast imports?

For cargo routed through Port Newark in New York and New Jersey, Norfolk Southern Voltz Yard is the primary discharge point. Worth knowing: Voltz requires every carrier to bring a bare chassis, because there is no equipment on site. We bring our own, so that is not your problem to solve. CPKC also serves New York, Norfolk, Charleston, and Savannah.

Does Mark-It Express serve Nebraska and Iowa from Kansas City?

Yes. Mark-It Express provides drayage within approximately 300 miles of Kansas City, covering Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, and Arkansas.

Is BNSF LPKC far from downtown Kansas City?

Yes, BNSF Logistics Park Kansas City in Edgerton is approximately 30 miles southwest of downtown Kansas City. This often results in an additional drayage surcharge. However, if your delivery is in the Edgerton/Gardner/Lenexa/Olathe corridor, BNSF LPKC may be the closest ramp to your facility.
