Rail Carrier Interface

With ShipperConnect Rail Carrier Interface, shippers can have real time access to their shipments through an intuitive web interface.

With Rail Carrier Interface, sending switching instructions is as easy as a mouse click - eliminating faxed instructions and eliminating errors. With ShipperConnect, users can

 

  • view railcars/shipments in route to their facility
  • see cars placed at their facility
  • view cars on constructive placement
  • order cars in
  • provide switching and other handling instructions
  • enter bills of lading
  • release cars

ShipperConnect Rail Carrier Interface is completely interfaced with RMI’s bill of lading solution (e-BOL). e-BOL provides rail and intermodal shippers with the ability to enter and electronically transmit bills of lading to their serving railroads. The system is internet-based and utilizes industry standard EDI transaction sets so that a shipper can forward a bill of lading to any railroad using one common interface.
