Written by Carolina Worrell, Senior Editor
Genesee & Wyoming Inc. (G&W) announced Nov. 27 that its railcar switching subsidiary, Rail Link, Inc., has secured five new contracts across the U.S. since September.
Under these agreements, Rail Link will handle:
- Renewable biofuels and liquid petroleum gases for a facility in southern California.
- Wood chips, chemicals and containerboard for two large paper manufacturers—one in Savannah and another in South Carolina.
- Automobiles for a Texas port.
- Aggregates for a construction materials company’s Texas plant.
In addition to railcar switching, G&W says Rail Link will provide these five customers with railcar loading, unloading, cleaning and repairs, as well as track inspection.
“Rail Link’s value proposition and longstanding experience with a variety of commodities are clearly resonating with customers in multiple industries and geographies who are looking for safe, efficient and competitive transportation services,” said Rail Link Operations Vice President Jason Bradt. “We can tailor our service based on individual customers’ needs, which also adds flexibility to our overall package.”
