"Beam" sounds great!

Alternatively, how about the more mundane "fast track" or "express deploy",
which fits the with image of "train"?

BACC sounds good to me: it's easy to pronounce. BCC already has a meaning.

Other suggestion:
This is the "fast travel" route in comparison to the regular weekly trains,
therefore the short name could play with that idea.
"Beam" would be quite expressive, IMO:

"Beam up the patches, Scotty!"
Excuse my nerding... ;-)

cool, but swat is shorter.
