Anyone know where I can get information on shipping items by train?

Question

I have heard that is less expensive then by a moving van but I am having trouble finding out how to do it online.

Answer 1

What are the items you want to ship via rail

Answer 2

I believe it would be nearly impossible in todays age. Most rail companies today deal solely with large clientel and are trying to push out most of their small business. I would say the only way to get it sent by train is if a large moving company has a contract with a railray. I not heard of an individual shipping anything on the railroad a long time. but I could be wrong.

Answer 3

You can Call you Union Pacific, but.. of course they can't bring it to your door step. Duh, but yeah, it will be alot closer.
