New to Rail
Preparing you for the exciting journey ahead.
WELCOME TO THE
WORLD OF RAIL
While the North American freight rail system has been a mainstay component of the international supply chain for well over a century, it’s never been a more exciting time to enter the rail shipping industry. From advancements in product design to breakthroughs in freight logistics and telematics, rail shipping is poised to operate a new era of efficiency.
As a leader in railcar leasing, manufacturing and logistics solutions, TrinityRail is the ideal partner to introduce you to this industry.
What Does the Future
of Rail Look Like?
Freight rail is getting smarter. Leveraging new tools and technologies alongside proven experience, the rail industry is poised for a digital revolution. New logistics platforms, GPS-enabled sensors, IOT solutions and advanced telematics are evolving to usher rail into the future to ensure greater fleet visibility and modern insights.
Evolution in supply chain technology isn’t the only area of improvement, though. Companies like TrinityRail are continuing to drive product innovation forward, finding new ways to make rail transportation more efficient, reliable, and sustainable.

TrinityRail is committed to modernizing and optimizing logistics in rail shipping. Alongside RSI Logistics, we are bringing a new age of rail-shipping visibility to life.
WHY CHOOSE RAIL?
Rail’s advantages are many, and industry innovators like TrinityRail are ensuring those attributes are consistently amplified.
ELEVATED EFFICIENCY
Compared to trucking, a single railcar can replace the load of three to four over-the-road trailers and can move 1 ton of freight over 480 miles on a single gallon of diesel fuel.
LONG SHELF LIFE
Rail shipping also allows for an extended equipment life and the improved ability to recycle materials, making rail a better investment than ever in today’s environmental landscape.
INCREASED SUSTAINABILITY
Factoring in lower greenhouse gas emissions, rail’s safety record, and lower operating costs, the real question is why not choose to ship by rail?
