Rail Terminals

While trucks are still the prime movers of aggregate materials, rail is continuing to gain market share. More than 35,000 railcars serve the U.S. aggregate industry and efficient, custom-designed transloading facilities are a key factor in cost-effective bulk material transport.

Automated and integrated unloading, loading and stockpile conveying systems continue to streamline operations at railcar facilities, as well as at river and ocean distribution centers worldwide.
