Class 1 and Regional Railroads

Class 1 and regional railroads can use the RailRunner equipment to open new markets by extending the reach of their existing hubs to regional centers that cannot support a traditional intermodal terminal. Services using RailRunner equipment are complementary to traditional intermodal service and can serve as a feeder to double-stack hubs, providing flexible integration with the double-stack intermodal network. The Class 1 and regional railroads best suited to take advantage of RailRunner equipment will have:

• An established program to explore and adopt new transportation technologies
• A market opportunity to expand in regional centers
• A sense of urgency and enthusiasm

RailRunner can provide:

• Co-branded marketing support
• Training in operating the RailRunner equipment
• Systems, software and support for the service operation
• Planning and assistance in terminal design
• Business modeling
• Equipment maintenance
• Support for regulatory certification and compliance
