🚆The railcar market is changing fast and not in the way you think. We’re no longer in a demand-driven cycle. It’s railcar supply that's calling the shots. Fewer new builds, higher scrappage, and skyrocketing costs are creating a tight, unpredictable market. If you’re holding on to aging railcars or waiting to make a move, you could be losing ground—and value. In our latest blog, Nathan Chilton, Director of Railcar Leasing & Sales, breaks down the biggest takeaways from the 2025 Rail Equipment Finance Conference and what it means for your fleet strategy. 📉 Sell smart. 📈 Lease flexibly. 📊 Manage proactively. Don’t get left behind. Read it now: https://hubs.la/Q03dYzZW0 #railindustry #railcars #assetmanagement #fleetstrategy #Tealinc #railcarleasing #railmarketupdate #logistics

They say luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity. In some circumstances, the way to capitalize on the vast benefits of rail is by transloading! 🍀🚂 If you’re new to rail or not maximizing its full potential, don’t leave your logistics to chance. Transloading from truck to rail, rail to truck, or barge/ship to rail to truck can open up new routes, increase shipping efficiency, and give you flexibility when you don’t have origin and/or destinations already established on rail. Smart shippers don’t wait for luck to strike—they create it! Are you ready to take control of your rail strategy and make your own luck? Call us today! #MakeYourOwnLuck #RailOpportunities #LogisticsStrategy #Transloading #RailShipping #Tealinc

🍀 Did you know that over 13 million pints of Guinness are enjoyed worldwide on St. Patrick’s Day? That’s a huge logistics challenge—one that rail helps solve! 🚂 Essential brewing ingredients like barley, hops, and malt move in bulk by rail, and transloading ensures breweries get what they need—even if they aren’t directly rail-served. By combining rail’s efficiency with truck delivery, transloading keeps supply chains flowing smoothly. Some shippers rely on luck—others rely on strategy. With transloading, you don’t need four-leaf clovers to unlock new shipping opportunities. 💡 Let’s talk about how rail can work for you—no luck required! #StPatricksDay #Transloading #RailShipping #Logistics #MakeYourOwnLuck #RailSolutions #Tealinc
