Railway Loop Track For Sale

About this listing

Coldwell Banker Commercial Devonshire Realty (CBCDR) is proud to offer for sale this railway loop track for sale in north Danville IL. This 90 acre site is assembled and ready for its next user. This almost 1.6 mile loop track was last used to load/unload coal, however would be ideal for grain or other goods coming in via rail. The loop is directly serviced by CSX as well as the Vermilion Valley Railway (VVR) (Short line rail that runs to Covington, IN). Loop tracks allow for cargo to be loaded as the train continues to move without having to detach cars and remain stationary which would be common in traditional ladder tracks increasing efficiency. The increased efficiency is not only met in the continuous motion, but also in downtime for crew. Another advantage in the winter months would be time savings from decoupling and losing air pressure in the cold.
