Criminals nabbed more than US$200 million of goods from 75,000 thefts on U.S. freight rail networks in 2025, according to an industry group that represents CSX, BNSF Railway Co. and Union Pacific Corp., among others. In January last year, a BNSF train was robbed of about 1,985 pairs of unreleased Nikes worth more than US$440,000, according to a filing in U.S. District Court in Phoenix. And police in Los Angeles discovered US$1.5 million of stolen cargo including goods from Milwaukee Tool during a raid. A CSX spokesperson said more than US$900,000 of tires alone have been stolen from trains across its network since the start of 2023.
