The U.S. Army is the principal user at Barstow-Daggett Airport (IATA: DAG, ICAO: KDAG): helicopters supporting the National Training Center at Fort Irwin stage from this Mojave Desert field, with the remainder being general aviation. There is no commercial air cargo here. Freight in this corner of the Mojave rides BNSF's large Barstow classification yard or trucks to Ontario (ONT), about 90 minutes down the I-15. The rail role is set to grow: on 17 June 2026 Barstow's City Council approved BNSF's 4,500-acre Barstow International Gateway, a roughly USD 4 billion private investment combining a rail yard, intermodal terminal and transload warehouses. Construction is due to start in late 2026 or early 2027, with zero-emission gantry cranes and a 140-acre solar farm part of the plan. Historic Route 66 still passes the gate.
