The Surface Transportation Board is an independent federal agency responsible for the economic regulation of surface transportation, with freight rail as its primary focus. It leverages its statutory authority to resolve disputes and set rules that support an efficient, competitive, and economically viable rail network. This regulatory role places the STB within the government administration landscape at the intersection of policy, enforcement, and industry oversight.

Its principal customers are rail carriers, shippers, and other users who rely on predictable service and clear dispute resolution within the freight transportation system. Based in Washington, District of Columbia, the board operates as part of the federal regulatory framework governing surface transportation. In May 2026, the STB launched a beta Open Data Portal that allows users to export data across carriers and time periods.
