Ethanol and bulk focus With access to over 1 billion gallons of ethanol capacity and a history of handling diverse commodities (agriculture, plastics, paper, steel, scrap, lumber, coal), IAIS presents opportunities to industries tied to energy, agri-business, and bulk materials seeking reliable rail solutions and unit train capabilities.

Strategic rail connections IAIS interfaces with major Class I networks (BNSF, UP, CN, CP, KCS, CSXT, NS) at multiple locations, offering competitive advantages for customers requiring flexible routing, intermodal, and barge connections to Mississippi and Illinois River terminals.
