Iowa Northern Railway Co. recently received the 2022 Premier Carrier Award from Tyson Foods Inc.
The award recognizes the short line for its outstanding rail service at Tyson Foods’ facility in Waterloo, Iowa. The railroad serves shippers in Cedar Rapids, Garner, Manly, Oelwin and Waterloo, Iowa.
Since 2019, Iowa Northern Railway has leased and operated an industrial park in Waterloo, where it provides switching and service support to Tyson Foods and other shippers, including John Deere.
The short line’s services have enabled Tyson Foods to better understand the benefits of customized rail service and increase its rail shipments, according to the shipper.
