Railroads Set for Growth With Better Service

Improving service levels will be critical for the railroad industry to win market share from other modes. In this Talking Transports podcast, Association of American Railroads (AAR) President and CEO Ian Jefferies joins Lee Klaskow, Bloomberg Intelligence senior transportation & logistics analyst, to discuss how the railroad industry is focused on providing a safer and more predictable service, which along with infrastructure investments could help capture share from trucking. This might help the industry surpass peak intermodal volume reached in 2018. Railroads have changed their approach to labor based on the lessons learned from the pandemic era. Jefferies also discusses how proposed regulations could affect railroads, and the benefits from precision scheduling.
