  • A large shipper of forest products faced a significant challenge in tracking shipments from Oklahoma to Alaska.  Railcars traveling to Alaska transition from rail to barge in Washington state and back onto rail in Alaska making it difficult to stay on top of exact locations and progress. Missing a barge departure or not knowing when one was missed could lead to supply chain disruptions. RailPulse made a difference:  ✅ Real-time GPS tracking to monitor the precise location of shipments  ✅ Automated notifications that alert teams about delays or movement changes  ✅ Enhanced visibility for all stakeholders involved in the supply chain The result? Enhanced visibility, improved communication, and no supply chain disruptions – even in remote, hard-to-track locations. Looking ahead: The shipper plans to expand RailPulse tracking to more shipments, ensuring continued efficiency and timely deliveries across the supply chain. 🔗 Don’t wait – Equip your fleet with RailPulse today and enjoy the benefits of real-time tracking and optimizing your supply chain.

  • Supply chain visibility is critical, but what happens when shipments move through hard-to-track locations—across rail, barge, and back to rail again? A leading shipper of forest products faced this exact challenge when sending railcars from Oklahoma to Alaska. With multiple transfer points and unpredictable transit delays, missing a barge departure could mean major supply chain disruptions. 💡 How do you track shipments seamlessly, even across multiple transport modes? Stay tuned for a real-world example of how RailPulse provided the real-time GPS tracking, automated updates, and proactive notifications this shipper needed to keep their supply chain running smoothly—from start to finish.

  • Railcar shippers often face a dilemma regarding the data associated with demurrage. Adding cars into RailPulse brings a shared level of visibility to car movements, which can help enrich conversations around demurrage and other accessorial charges. In fact, one RailPulse customer has created and implemented geofences to facilitate these shared data discussions.    By providing a shared, trusted source of real-time railcar location data, RailPulse helps enable more productive, transparent conversations between all parties — shippers and railroads alike. Here’s how it works: 1️⃣ Geofences are set up around key facilities  2️⃣ Railcar entries & exits are automatically tracked  3️⃣ Monthly reports detail arrivals & departures for easy demurrage reconciliation The result? Clear, shared data on railcar movements — fueling more collaborative conversations about plant and railroad efficiency, all grounded in accurate, transparent tracking that benefits both shippers and railroads. 🔎 Gain visibility. Reduce disputes. Improve efficiency. 🚀 Ready to transform your railcar tracking?

  • We were so inspired by this incredible piece of rail history — a WWI-era boxcar, gifted to New Jersey by France in 1949 as part of the “Merci Train,” is finally making its way home after being lost for nearly 67 years. Read the full story here: https://lnkd.in/gNKuRpCN How was it found?  After disappearing in the late 1950s, this treasured boxcar was discovered tucked away in a Tennessee field, later stored quietly in a Kansas City warehouse — its identity unknown for decades. Thanks to the passion of rail historians and the dedication of the United Railroad Historical Society of New Jersey, this beautiful piece of history is coming home.  And we couldn’t be more grateful to see it return — restored, celebrated, and shared for future generations to enjoy. But it does make you think... “If they were using RailPulse… they could have avoided 67 years of being lost.” Because while stories like this capture our hearts — visibility like this shouldn’t take a lifetime. RailPulse ensures your assets — and their stories — stay on track, seen, and never forgotten. → Keeping your treasure on the tracks.  → Saving you 67 years of searching.  → Giving you real-time visibility today — not decades from now.  We're excited to be a part of rail’s past, present, and future. #RailPulse #RailHistory #MerciTrain #RailTechnology #VisibilityMatters #RailIndustry #ProudToBeRail

  • How RailPulse Works: Transforming Rail Freight for Shippers RailPulse isn’t just enhancing rail operations; it’s creating real value for shippers. Our near real-time telematics and data-driven insights bring a new level of visibility and efficiency to rail freight, directly benefiting shippers across North America. Here’s how RailPulse benefits shippers: 🔹 Full Shipment Visibility: With approximately 17 times more data, shippers can monitor their cargo in near real-time, knowing where it is, any potential delays, and enhanced arrival times. This transparency helps shippers plan logistics better and communicate with customers. 🔹 Load/Unload Sensors: RailPulse’s load/unload sensors notify shippers the moment their cargo is unloaded and ready for reloading, minimizing downtime and allowing them to coordinate the next shipment seamlessly. This feature spurs improved utilization of your fleet and enhances operations’ ability to limit interruptions. 🔹 Optimized Efficiency: Improved visibility of loaded and empty railcars promotes better planning for your products and facilitates faster transit times for better delivery schedules. This enables shippers to maintain optimal inventory levels and reduce warehousing costs.

    𝗔𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗹𝗰𝗮𝗿𝘀 𝗴𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗹𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝗮 𝗖𝗟𝗠 “𝗯𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗲”?   25% of carloads go off the grid in areas with poor CLM coverage, leading to delays, inefficiencies, and supply chain headaches. With RailPulse, you’ll get real-time GPS tracking that provides updates: 🔹 Within 1 minute of starting or stopping 🔹 Every 15 minutes while in motion   Each railcar in our RailPulse fleet receive approximately 44 telemetry messages per day, while railcars in our non-RailPulse fleet only receive 2 CLM readings per day. No more black holes! Just greater visibility, better planning, and more efficient operations.   Discover how RailPulse can transform your railcar management at https://lnkd.in/d7GmFiwq or reach out to your GATX Sales Director.   #RailPulse #RailTelematics #RailIoT #ExperiencetheGATXDifference
