“Back in 2020 after realizing a requirement to add open top hopper railcars to our fleet, we identified Tealinc as a railcar supplier/lessor/seller/manager. I made attempts with others to acquire railcars but communication was typically lacking. Refreshingly, Tealinc responded to my request immediately! Kristen Kempson was the lead in helping me identify the exact railcars we needed for our project and offered several attractive pricing options. Julie Mink helped coordinate an on-site inspection directly on our behalf and managed the paperwork and financial aspects of the transaction which led to a successful closing on schedule with our time constraints. Shannon Rodgers coordinated the UMLER transfer, answered our Railinc questions and traced the cars daily until they arrived – even pushing the railroads to help get cars moving when they were stuck. We value our relationship with Tealinc and highly recommend their rail equipment services to others.”

“As someone who has not done this before this quickly became a significant learning curve. Having the check issued to purchase the cars was the easy part of the process. It was much appreciated and a relief having the Tealinc team support our company in this process long after the check was in the bank. Thanks again!”

“Our company is a research firm that found itself with the necessity to ship large tonnages of proprietary zeolite from Nevada to Texas for use in the company’s patented well cement technology. While good at technology development, our company had no knowledge or experience with rail transportation. Fortunately, an associate recommended Tealinc to help with our rail shipment requirements. Tealinc was instrumental in our economic planning for rail shipment and provided expert guidance in the complicated issues of rates and Rules. Tealinc went a step further and met with our client in our behalf and even designed an unloading system at the delivery industrial complex. We lease our railcars from Tealinc and found Tealinc to be receptive to our unique fleet constraints which has led to the positive impression that Tealinc cares about what we do.”

“Freight logistics by railcar is a very complicated equation.  Unless you understand the “ins” and “outs” of this industry, you could end up at several roadblocks.  That is until we came across Tealinc’s consulting services that we were able to understand the necessary steps to accomplish using railcar for our freight needs. Tealinc made it easy to do business with them.  They spelled out the action items they would take and the deliverables for using their consulting services.  They were very professional and responsive when I have had questions about the project.  They did what they said they would do and completed within the time-frame they proposed.  I would highly recommend their services.  They are a great group to work with.”

“[Our company] was in need of a railcar to assist in our maintenance operations. Tealinc was new to [us] as a supplier, but exceeded expectations as they put the deal together. From arranging an inspection to helping us find storage, the transaction was smooth and professional. Kristen Kempson and her co-workers also did an awesome job communicating with me and my team during the entire process. Timely and to the point each step of the way. I highly recommend Kristen Kempson and Tealinc.”

“I would recommend Tealinc and especially working with Julie Mink. Julie is a pleasure to work with. She is very knowledgeable about the railcar industry. Tealinc has purchased our railcars at our asking prices in tough business conditions. Tealinc has given us a value-added product by helping us understand the maintenance end of being a rail car owner. They are there to help with any questions. We value our relationship with Julie, and I would trust her and her team for all your rail needs. She understands and thrives on the values of establishing a strong working relationship. We appreciate and value our relationship with Tealinc.”

“Thank you Tealinc! I have dealt with more than a few rail companies over the past 13 years and have never had a company that goes above and beyond to keep the customer informed as Tealinc has done. The staff is great from sales to rail car tracking, to their knowledge with the AAR rules and requirements is exceptional. Thanks again Tealinc. CSC appreciates all of your help!”

“Our company owns and operates a hazardous and radioactive waste facility. Due to our remote location and longer distances from our customers, rail transportation is the most economical transportation method we have. We have worked with Tealinc since 2004 and have continued to work with them since then. Tealinc advised us on rail improvements and upgrades that resulted in the award of a cleanup contract. Tealinc was a trusted advisor to our company from the initial proposal submitted in 2004  through the contract award in 2007 and they continue to assist us today as the rail improvements are being constructed. Tealinc’s knowledge of the industry and equipment is a great benefit to our company and allow us to provide robust, economical transportation solutions to our customers. There are a lot of consultant to choose from with a variety of experience, but our company is glad we selected Tealinc as our rail improvement advisor.”

“Darell Luther, Tealinc’s Founder and CEO, has been our rail consultant for the past 3 years. His knowledge and experience with rail have been very beneficial to us as he has assisted us with locating railcars, creating scopes for railcar repairs, has reviewed and offered assistance with railyard layouts, track configuration and rail contracts. I highly recommend Darell and the team at Tealinc can be trusted to assist with your project needs.”
