Our newest bulk facility is at Frederickson, WA which is 13 miles southeast of Tacoma. This is a rail served facility where well cars full of empty steamship line containers are moved directly from the rail yard of Tacoma Rail. They are placed on chassis, loaded with bulk products from hopper cars and reloaded to the well cars. Tacoma Rail then moves the well cars directly into the steamship line terminals thus eliminating truck traffic on the highways, through the gates and in the terminal yards. The facility has 5300 feet of track, 4 turnouts, and 8 acres of useable property. There is an 80’ digital truck scale. The system flows through an auger/conveyor/auger route and the discharge pit is 32’ long. Each discharge track with accommodate 10 hopper cars and the intermodal tracks will handle six five-well cars.
