Rescar Companies’ Post

How effectively is your railcar fleet positioned? Do you have too few or too many railcars? As companies strive for improved operating efficiencies, asset utilization becomes a critical factor for rail shippers. Having too many railcars can impede on operations or result in storage fees, while too few can mean missed revenue opportunities. If you have inquiries or wish to discuss your railcar fleet size, feel free to reach out to any member of our team. For those seeking to expand their railcar fleet, we have a wide range of options available including gondolas, open top, and covered hoppers. Conversely, if you are looking to downsize your fleet, we are actively seeking to acquire railcars for our own growing fleet. #railcars #rail #railcarfleet #assetutilization

What do we do - Rail Fleet Services ✔️Railcar Whisperers: Did you know that Tealinc’s team is often jokingly referred to as the "railcar whisperers"? Our knack for tracing, tracking, finding, pushing, and managing railcars is legendary amongst our customers. It’s as if we can "talk" to the railcars we own and manage and get them back on track in no time! ✔️The Railcar Spa: While some may associate a "railcar shop" with grit and grime, have you considered how much more efficiently a railcar operates after receiving proper attention? That’s why, for every railcar we own, lease out, and manage, when planning our preventive maintenance program or deploying on-site mobile repair units, we refer to the visit as "the railcar spa"! Each railcar can experience a comprehensive treatment that includes a thorough inspection. Alternatively, if time is limited, we seek a focused menu of essential services. Our aim is to ensure every railcar receives the care it needs to stay refreshed, maintained, and ready for the rails! #rail #railcars #webuyrailcars

What are the benefits of Transloading? It simplifies your operations. Shipping bulk or heavy materials can create some challenges, but transloading allows you to consolidate your shipment to make it easier to transport as well as more affordable. For example, what may require 4+ trucks to move could be done using one railcar. #professorthomas thomas@railstrong.com. #neft

The rail industry is moving toward the tracking visibility offered by rival transportation modes. Some of the majors are already onboard. Customers would prefer a single portal to view a shipment that may interline through multiple railroads. It will be interesting to watch industry adoption, particularly of this standardized platform. Will other competing platforms develop? Or will the competitive railroads develop their own visibility platforms? #rail #railinnovation #logisticstechnology #transportation #logistics

I was today years old when I first learned that the #rail industry doesn't have some of the #freight tracking capabilities that I assumed it did. Very interesting article by Lisa Baertlein about industry coalition RailPulse that aims to "create a neutral, open-architecture, industry-wide railcar telematics platform" that would "provide real-time data via GPS and other telematics across the North American railcar fleet". As a #datanerd, I always think that such systems are critical for both business and policy decision-making - so I hope it's successful (looks like CPKC just joined the coalition [with UP and NS already there] earlier this month).
