Read Time: 1 min

Kansas City Southern and Midstream Texas Operating today announced a long-term commercial agreement to provide truck-to-rail transloading services for petroleum and petrochemicals from Corpus Christi, Texas into Mexico.

“This new transload is strategically close to supply locations and to the border for expedient access to end markets,” said KCS vice-president energy and chemical products Ginger Adamiak.

Operations are expected to begin in fourth quarter 2021.

On property leased from KCS, Midstream Texas Operating will construct a transload facility, including siding tracks and facilities for loading and staging of 200 rail cars per month in the initial phase. The site is readily expandable to eventually handle over 500 rail cars a month.
