A compiled North American grain rail cost series with route-level detail the official sources do not publish. The publication tracks grain fuel surcharges per railcar-mile (48 cents in September 2026 against 19 cents a year earlier), tariff changes by route and carrier, and per-car surcharge amounts on named origin-to-terminal lanes — for example a 611 dollar surcharge on a 6,255 dollar tariff moving soybeans from Argyle, Minnesota to the Pacific Northwest on BNSF, and 1,075 dollars on a 5,047 dollar tariff for corn from Enderlin, North Dakota to Kalama, Washington on CPKC. It also covers shuttle train capacity pricing as an asset market: 13 year-long BNSF shuttle contracts auctioned on 23 September for a combined 17.2 million dollars, averaging 1.3 million dollars per contract against 595,000 dollars a year earlier, plus secondary-market bids and offers above published tariff (525 dollars per car in September, 228 dollars higher year on year) and unfilled manifest car orders (2,125 against 762).
