Tacoma Rail provides services that are vital to the economic health of our customers

Tacoma Rail links over 65 customers with North America and the world. We provide rail freight service in 3 Washington counties, including the Tacoma and Olympia areas, as well as the ports of Olympia and Tacoma.

Tacoma Rail's three divisions combine to move over 165,000 rail shipments per year along 204 miles of track with 14 locomotives and 90 employees.

Tacoma Rail is owned by the City of Tacoma through Tacoma Public Utilities. While we are a public agency, we are self-funded through freight rates, associated fees and property leases. In fact, Tacoma Rail contributes almost $2.6 million annually to the City of Tacoma's revenue stream through contributions toward shared City services and an 8% Gross Receipts Tax.
