Thank you to @SenatorBanks for your work to secure multiple rail infrastructure grants for Indiana communities. These investments deliver real benefits for Hoosiers by improving safety, strengthening our freight rail network, and supporting economic growth across the state.
I'm proud to have helped secure over $75 million in federal grants for Indiana rail infrastructure improvements including track and bridge rehabilitation, crossing upgrades, and equipment improvements.

Thank you to @RepBuddyCarter @RepHankJohnson and @Rep_Clyde along with congressional staff, for touring @GaPorts Port of Savannah with AAR & @AAPASeaports. The visit showed how rail extends the reach of Georgia's ports, helping power the economy and keeping prices affordable.

Huge win for @RJCormanRR, a great Kentucky company. We secured over $43M to improve the transportation of goods in our region.
I strongly supported this funding through a letter of support to DOT and personally brought @SecDuffy to Kentucky earlier this year to discuss our regional transportation needs. Congratulations to RJ Corman Railroad Group!

Indiana’s rail infrastructure plays an important role in supporting our economy and connecting Hoosier businesses to markets across the country. These investments will help improve rail safety, modernize aging infrastructure, and make our transportation network more efficient and reliable.

Before cars hit the road, they often ride the rails. CSX moves about 4.5 million vehicles annually through our network of 36 TDSI terminals, helping automakers deliver vehicles to markets across the country. #CSX #FreightRail

Thank you, @RepDavidRouzer. North Carolina's 2,751-mile freight rail network is essential to moving the goods families and businesses rely on every day. Strong rail connections support jobs, economic growth and supply chain reliability.
Our nation's rail network plays a critical role in moving freight and supporting American businesses.
I'm proud to have worked with @RJCormanRR to secure federal funding to modernize rail lines, create more reliable service, and build stronger connections to the national freight network across North Carolina and the Southeast region.

The @CREATE_Chicago's Forest Hill Flyover is a finalist for AASHTO's People's Choice Award. The project will reduce freight and passenger rail conflicts, ease congestion and improve reliability in the Chicago region. Vote daily through Nov. 15. Link in comments.

Back-to-back locomotives lead a train winding adjacent to a river and through a kaleidoscope of fall colours in Levack, Ont. Congratulations to Trevor Franklin for capturing this beautiful photo which is featured in our 2026 #CPKC Calendar.
CPKC is always looking for beautiful photos of our trains. We accept photo and short video submissions throughout the year. Visit our website to learn more and submit today.

Pretty sure that grain elevator has at least one ghost. #BNSFTraintober

Thank you, @RepJeffHurd. The steel and rail produced in Pueblo contribute to an economic footprint that extends far beyond Colorado. By supporting the freight rail network, Pueblo's manufacturers help connect businesses, strengthen supply chains and drive economic growth!
Steel made in Pueblo helps keep America moving.
I joined @Sonderling47 at Rocky Mountain Steel Mills to see the skilled work behind the rail produced here and shipped across the country.
Pueblo has been making steel for generations. That history still matters, but so does its future.
American manufacturing depends on skilled workers, reliable energy, and communities willing to keep building things here at home.
Thanks to Secretary Sonderling, Eric Shuster, and the Rocky Mountain Steel team for the tour. #CO03 #ILovePueblo

Harvest readiness takes more than capacity on paper. Customers need rail equipment deployed and prepared to move.
With a robust grain car fleet in place, including our shuttle equipment, which remained fully deployed throughout the summer, we remain flexible to support customers as peak harvest season ramps up. At BNSF, we’re focused on serving our customers through harvest and beyond.

Just released: AAR's Policy & Economics Team’s October 2026 Rail Industry Overview. Q3 was the highest-volume intermodal quarter ever for U.S. railroads. In September, railroads originated nearly 295,000 intermodal units per week. Read the report via the link in the comments.

Rising fuel costs are influencing shipping decisions across the supply chain. A recent @Marketplace report highlights how some businesses are turning to intermodal rail as a cost-effective option, helping drive record intermodal volumes. Link in comments.

At a Capitol Hill discussion hosted by @BBB_NtlPrograms, AAR's Mike Rush discussed how collaboration, industry standards and innovation have helped strengthen rail safety and why modern regulatory approaches can support future safety advancements.

Following WWII, freight rail helped move the steel, lumber, cement, and energy products that fueled America's manufacturing boom. Today, rail continues to connect manufacturers with the raw materials, parts, customers, and markets that keep America building. #ManufacturingDay

Investing in capacity today helps us deliver for our customers tomorrow.
We've just completed three major expansion projects in Galesburg, Illinois; Winslow, Arizona; and Memphis, Tennessee. This infrastructure work adds capacity, improves fluidity and enhances efficiency on our network.
These projects are already helping us move more freight with greater consistency while positioning us to support future growth. Read more about these investments and the teams who made them possible at bnsf.com/news-media/railtalk….

The perfect photo shouldn't come at a cost.
Railroad tracks and bridges may seem like the perfect backdrop, but they're not safe places for photos, videos or selfies. And while we appreciate your photos, we want to remind you to stay off railroad tracks and property. The best shot is one you can take from a safe location.
