The Red River Valley & Western Railroad Company began operations on July 19, 1987 over track acquired from the Burlington Northern Railroad (now Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway). Since then, the railroad has experienced solid growth in terms of freight volume, employment, and physical improvements.
RRVW currently owns and operates 517 route miles of track and handles an average of about 42,000 carloads annually, which is more than double the volume at start up. This rise is attributed in part to the railroad’s more frequent service, the addition of local markets, and the acquisition of 100 grain cars. RRVW’s ongoing effort to find new and expanded markets for customers has also helped bring new business to the railroad. RRVW presently serves more than 60 customers, including 4-grain shuttle facilities and 35-grain elevators.
