RAILSOLUTIONS-LLCManage supplier listing

A 50-year structured census and valuation series for North American railroad equipment: supply-and-demand trends segmented into 1975-2007, 2008-2010 and 2011-2017; two proprietary indices (the RS Railcar Market Index and the Railcar Rental Rate Index); equipment-ownership mix trends; economic-useful-life tables by asset; salvage and scrap-value series; and granular car-class value evaluations across 14 railcar sections (general service boxcars, five covered-hopper variants, mill/coil and high-side gondolas, coal open-top hoppers, center-bulkhead flatcars, double-stack intermodal, three tank-car classes, autoracks) plus five locomotive sections down to individual model level (EMD GP9, GP38-2, GP40-2, SD40-2, SD70ACe; GE ES44AC, AC4400CW, ES44C4). A separate 'RailSolutions Historical Database' product sits alongside the guide.

Type
not stated
Format
Multimodal — a long-form valuation guide (275+ pages) containing embedded time-series tables and index series, delivered as a paid PDF/printed report, plus a separate historical database product implying structured tabular delivery.
Volume
275+ pages of structured valuation content covering 14 railcar classes and 5 locomotive sections at model level, with supply/demand series spanning 1975 to 2017 across two proprietary indices, ownership trends, useful-life tables and salvage series; plus a separate historical database product whose extent is not published.
Users
No registered-user platform — a B2B market-research and appraisal publisher selling reports and a database subscription directly; the account base is bounded by the addressable niche of railcar lessors, banks, railroads and industrial shippers (request further research for a client count; a ~5-person Boulder practice implies tens of institutional accounts, not thousands).
History
52 years
Update frequency
not stated
Growth
Mature / possibly stale — the guide's supply-and-demand narrative terminates at 2017 and the sections are dated by period rather than by a current year, so the published edition is not obviously maintained to 2026. The company still operates (site live, database product offered) but the report edition may lag.
Launched
est. 2017-2018 for this edition of the investor guide (content runs through 2017, so the guide was compiled at or just after that date) — the firm's historical database and appraisal practice are older, given the series begins in 1975 and the current web presence postdates the underlying practice.
