Rail Freight
Connecting Cargo Through Canada’s Rail and Intermodal Networks
Rail remains a major part of Canada’s freight transportation system, particularly for long-distance movements, containerized freight and cargo moving between inland markets and major ports.
Shepherd International Logistics Canada supports rail and intermodal freight solutions by coordinating the movement of cargo between rail terminals, ports, trucking providers and final destinations.
For Western Canadian freight, rail plays an important role in connecting inland markets such as Alberta with Canada’s major Pacific gateways and broader North American transportation networks. Intermodal rail infrastructure continues to be a central component of Canada’s trade corridors.
