About this buyer

Owns the three Indiana ports and the rail inside them: a multimodal project at Burns Harbor added railyards and rail-served docks, and a MARAD-funded rail yard and transload facility is planned at Mount Vernon, the port that moves 40,000 railcars a year. It tenders rail repair and intermodal yard work on its bid-notice page; a Mount Vernon build-operate-transfer transload yard request for proposals (closing 15 October 2026) states no value or scope detail.
