A young company. An experienced team.

Where the experience comes from

Timiron is a young company. The people running it are not new to this work. Every era below is work our leadership team did for other companies before Timiron existed, except the last one.

2013 — the Southeast chemical-transfer era

Our story starts in the Southeast, where our leadership team operated a network of 13 chemical-transfer terminal sites. Railcar-to-truck transfer of industrial chemicals is unforgiving work — hydrochloric acid does not tolerate sloppy hose discipline — and it taught the habits that still define how we run a terminal: procedure first, containment always, and no load moves until the paperwork matches the product.

2014 — crude truck-to-rail at Fruita, Colorado

Our leadership team commissioned crude truck-to-rail loading at Fruita, Colorado — taking a greenfield site from bare ground to loaded unit trains. This was the first proof that we could stand up a truck-to-rail operation from scratch: build the loading procedures, train the crews, and get product rolling on schedule.

2015–2016 — the Ohio River and ground-up construction

At Belpre, Ohio, our leadership team built barge docks on the Ohio River and led ground-up terminal construction — civil work, dock infrastructure, transfer systems, and commissioning. Belpre added the marine leg to our playbook and proved we could deliver construction, not just operations.

2017 — rail, truck, and marine in one operation

By 2017 our leadership team was running integrated rail-truck-marine transfer — moving product across all three modes at a single operation. Coordinating railcar spots, truck windows, and barge schedules against river conditions is the hardest logistics problem in transloading, and it became a core competency.

Nationwide network operations

Between eras and alongside them, our leadership team operated bulk transload terminals across the country — Allenport, Belpre, Fruita, Casper, Yorktown, San Antonio, Bossier City, and dozens more. Crude, condensate, frac sand, ethanol, and multi-commodity bulk, by rail, truck, barge, and dock. The full facility record is below.

2025 — Timiron LLC at Cadiz, Ohio

Today that experience runs a terminal Timiron LLC operates itself: crude and condensate, truck to rail, in Cadiz, Ohio. Across 2025 and 2026 it grew from one loading position to three, and it is in service today.

Rail relationships

Two decades of loading unit trains and manifest traffic built working relationships with every Class 1 railroad in North America — Union Pacific, BNSF, CSX, Norfolk Southern, CN, and CPKC — and the majority of North American shortlines. When we commit cars to a schedule, the railroad already knows how we operate.
