Shortline Railroad Wins Award for PA Marcellus Transload Facility

We can't resist a good railroad story. The American Shortline and Regional Railroad Association (ASLRRA) has just recognized the Reading & Northern (R&N) Railroad, based in Port Clinton, PA, with one of the industry's highest honors for marketing achievement. The ASLRRA recognized R&N for its development of a large Marcellus Shale transload facility in Tunkhannock (Wyoming County), PA. Opened in late 2021, the facility began full operations in early 2022 and handled over 2200 carloads of frack sand despite many challenges facing the Marcellus Shale region.
