TNW Corp. today announced a strategic alliance with TrinityRail to expand rail service on the Texas North Western Railway (TXNW) line in Sunray, Texas.

In Sunray, the companies will offer storage space for more than 11,000 rail cars, a tank-car certified repair shop facility, fast-track service for quick turnaround repair projects, rail-car cleaning and flaring and daily service through an interchange with BNSF Railway Co., TNW officials said in a press release.

The alliance will benefit customers by offering enough capacity to take large returns of 300 or more rail cars from a terminating lessee and allowing a faster return to service, they added.

"The on-site TNW car-cleaning operations coupled with TrinityRail's repair and maintenance capabilities allow customers to have a single location for cleaning, storage, maintenance and repair of their fleet," said TrinityRail Senior Vice President of U.S. Operations Aaron Gooding.

TNW owns one of the largest U.S. rail-car storage facilities, and owns and operates three short lines and four logistics centers in Texas. TrinityRail manufactures rail cars and provides leasing and maintenance services for a fleet of more than 140,000 cars.

Meanwhile, TNW has promoted Cheryl Hart to director of sales and marketing. She will develop and implement strategic sales, marketing and communications, TNW officials said in a press release.

Hart has directed TNW's marketing and communications since October 2021. Before that, she managed marketing and branding since January 2019.

She has more than 25 years of experience in sales and marketing leadership.
