Dry boxcars and 53' domestic containers
Enclosed, ambient-temperature rail for palletized and packaged freight, doublestacked when the lane allows to hold the cost down.
Rail
Rail Freight Shipping
Rail saves real money on bulk and non-urgent freight, but only if somebody watches it. Fello coordinates rail nationwide and tells you about delays before you have to ask.
Rail freight
Rail freight coordination, watched at every handoff
When truckload rates are high, rail is often the cheaper way to move bulk and non-urgent commodities. Give us the cargo and destination details, and we coordinate the rest, with updates at every handoff.
Flat cars and centerbeams
Open rail for steel, lumber, building materials, and equipment, the same heavy freight our building-materials and construction shippers move.
Refrigerated cars
Climate-controlled rail for the occasional load that genuinely needs the temperature held.
Why Fello for rail
The rail details we stay on top of
Rail has its own failure modes: cars that don't get ordered in time, freight stranded at a transload point, and railroad demurrage quietly billing while a car sits. Our job is watching those clocks so your bulk freight keeps its cost advantage.
Two specialty manufacturers have moved 100% of their freight with Fello for years, whatever mode it takes.
What you can count on
- Car ordering handled and confirmed before your load date
- Transload points coordinated so freight never sits between modes
- Railroad demurrage watched daily and flagged before it bills
- Proactive delay alerts before you have to ask
- One coordinator from pickup to destination
