Rail Services
 

The growing success of U.S. Development Group (USD) is based on it's proven ability to identify and acquire location-critical real estate throughout the United States to support a strategy of:
 

Managing the entire process of designing, financing, constructing, operating and owning an expanding nationwide network of terminal facilities and infrastructure that provides options for real customer-driven logistics solutions for:

     
  railcar storage
  unit train staging
  bulk loading/offloading
  maintenance and cleaning
  improved fleet management and utilization
  truck-railcar-marine transloading
  liquids terminalling
  order fulfillment

Until now, these options may have been inaccessible, unavailable or uneconomical to customers attempting to manage their rail supply and distribution processes within the constraints of the present infrastructure of the railroads.

USD personnel represent years of extensive experience in banking and finance, real estate development and operations management within the railroad, chemical manufacturing and terminalling industries – having served in the role of a supplier and/or customer of rail and terminal ling services themselves.

USD is uniquely qualified to work FOR the customer by way of the manner in which it works WITH the railroads. In fact, railroads are counted among key USD customers. USD takes time to understand the particulars of each customer’s rail logistics processes and challenges and then develops real solutions implemented through the design of its rail facilities and supported by USD’s own Customer Service Center in Houston.

Currently USD owns and manages the following rail logistics facilities:

Bayport Rail Terminal (Houston, TX)

Dallas/Fort Worth Rail Terminal (Arlington, TX)

Linden Transload Terminal (Linden, NJ)

Baltimore Transload Terminal (Baltimore, MD)

Future properties are being targeted in the southeast, upper mid-west and western United States, as well as Canada, toward the development of an integrated network of rail logistics facilities. Please follow our progress on our NEWS page.
