Why SandTransload

Rail access for heavy materials without starting from scratch.

SandTransload gives shippers, contractors, distributors, and project teams a practical way to use rail without building a new siding or developing a dedicated terminal from the ground up.


The network is built around real terminal locations, short line railroad service, material handling options, and regional truck distribution — helping customers move heavy, repetitive, or project-driven freight more efficiently.

Network Advantages

A working terminal network for bulk freight movement.

SandTransload is focused on practical rail-to-truck solutions for bulk materials, infrastructure work, industrial projects, and customers that need rail economics without building rail infrastructure of their own.

Rail-to-Truck Transload

Receive material by rail and distribute regionally by truck to job sites, plants, yards, warehouses, distributors, and end users.

▧

Short Line Terminal Access

One clear serving railroad at each location.

Coopers Plains is served by B&H Rail Corp., while Emporium and Turtle Point are served by the Western New York & Pennsylvania Railroad. SandTransload brings those sites together as a single customer-facing terminal network for bulk material movement.
