Choosing freight rail offers a wide array of benefits - but they're benefits many need reminders of. That's where GoRail comes in. To discuss more about what GoRail does, its now more than 20-year history and the evolution of the industry, State Director Brett Sebastian and AVP for Communications Betsy Cantwell join The Intermodal Logistics Podcast.

Betsy and Brett talk about GoRail's origins, its role at the Federal, state and local government levels - and why each is important - and the Rail Advocate and Rail Champion programs. Plus, they go over some of GoRail's legislative priorities, including the safe crossing grant program, the highway trust fund, and the 2026 reauthorization of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA). We also highlight the GoRail Twenty report (including some key rail stats) and cross-border issues now arising.
