MARS Young Professionals Transload and Rail Yard Tour

The MARS Young Professionals hosted a transload and rail yard tour for 30 rail professionals on Wednesday, September 20, 2023.

The group started the day by visiting Great Lakes Reload facility where they were hosted on a thorough tour and presentation. Following the stop, the group visited CN’s Kirk Yard in Gary, IN. The group was treated to a detailed explanation of the facilities and aerial view of the entire yard. The event concluded with a networking lunch.

Thank you to the event’s sponsors: RailServe, The Greenbrier Companies, UTLX and GATX.

The efforts of the MARS Young Professionals Committee really made the day terrific for attendees — thank you to Catie Stoos, GATX, Elie Dakoul, CN and Mike Richardson, Kemira for their efforts.

Lastly, MARS appreciates the host facilities for having us. Thank you to Great Lakes Reloading and CN’s Kirk Yard.
