Run Rail
THE GREENER ALTERNATIVE
What is Run Rail?
Run Rail is a wholesale equipment provider on all Class 1 North American railroads (US, Canada, and Mexico). We work with our IMC partners to provide SQP and FAK transactional pricing options on the BNSF railroad. We provide wholesale pricing with the CP, KCS/KCSM, NS, and CSX.
Run Rail has a core commitment to environmental stewardship. We believe that as transportation needs grow, the expansion of the North American rail networks provides lower impact solutions that are cost effective, environmentally responsible, and equivocal to OTR solutions.
By Q4 2023, Run Rail hopes to have achieved a footprint expansion in the wholesale equipment space from the current fleet size of 750 containers to over 2, 000 containers. Run Rail does not directly work with any BCO; all our relationships are maintained with our IMC partners.
We are looking to the future by building a reliable world-class freight rail network today.
Benefits of Run Rail
Environmentally Sustainable
Rail freight emits lower volumes of CO2 compared to other transportation modes, such as road or air, making it the best option for the environment.
Efficient
Rail is the perfect solution when it comes to transporting large items over long distances. It is not subject to traffic congestion and provides GPS tracking of your goods from pickup to drop off.
Safer and More Secure
There are significantly fewer fatalities and injuries from rail accidents as compared to road accidents. In terms of both the number of accidents and the frequency of crimes, such as burglary, theft, and vandalism, rail is one of the safest modes of transport. With GPS tracking in all Run Rail containers, your goods are protected against loss or theft in transit.
Cost-Effective
Goods transportation can be one of the largest supply chain expenses for businesses, but it doesn’t have to be. Run Rail offers numerous advantages over other modes of transportation. It is significantly cheaper, safer, and less damaging to the environment and the ability to haul larger loads makes Run Rail inherently cost-effective.
Equipment
By reducing delays and minimizing transport costs, we will make sure you always have a detailed and reliable solution to your needs.
Run Rail provides 53’ high cube rail containers. All containers are 2022 builds, and available across North America.
Our containers are all equipped with Samsara GPS trackers. GPS tracking and location data are available at all stages of the load life, not just while on the track. We have the ability to integrate location data via API or EDI.
Run Rail uses BLUME TMS for rail billing, gate reservations, and equipment management.
