Experience
Before Timiron existed, the people who run it spent two decades building and operating bulk transload terminals across the country — greenfield construction, brownfield retrofits, unit-train start-ups, and the daily grind of keeping product moving safely. Nine projects tell that story.
Alamo Junction — Elmendorf, Texas
Built and operated a frac sand rail transload serving Eagle Ford shale completions. Our team took the site from build-out through daily operations: railcar switching, silo management, and truck loadout at shale-boom pace.
Fruita — Fruita, Colorado
A crude truck-to-rail terminal where our team owned flow assurance end to end — authoring the loading procedures, spill-prevention and emergency response plans, and the storage-tank inspection program that kept crude moving from Piceance basin trucks into railcars without incident.
Belpre — Belpre, Ohio
A greenfield build: a condensate stabilization and barge plant on the Ohio River, built and operated by our team from bare ground to a working facility with four river docks. Construction ran 2014–2017; the drone record of the build is part of the story we tell.
Southton — San Antonio, Texas
Built and operated a multi-commodity rail transload on the south side of San Antonio — another ground-up build carried through into steady-state operations.
Philadelphia crude-by-rail — Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Our team built, started up, and operated a crude-by-rail offloading operation on a retrofitted refinery site — 104 car spots carved out of legacy infrastructure. Over the life of the program the site offloaded 216+ unit trains of crude.
Tampa Port — Tampa, Florida
Built and operated an ethanol unit-train terminal at the Port of Tampa — full trains in, tank trucks out, feeding the Florida fuels market.
Casper — Casper, Wyoming
Operated a crude unit-train terminal in the Powder River basin, loading full trains for delivery to distant refining markets.
Atlanta — Atlanta, Georgia
A railcar heel-reduction program: systematic work on offloading practice that cut the residual heel left in railcars, recovering product that had been riding back and forth across the network as dead freight.
Cadiz — Cadiz, Ohio (current)
The flagship. Timiron operates the Cadiz crude truck-to-rail terminal in the Utica shale today — the one facility on this page that is ours, running now, with our proprietary operations software on top. Read the Cadiz story.
Working with regulators
Two decades of terminal work is also two decades of regulator relationships. Our team has permitted, inspected, and operated under OSHA, PHMSA, EPA, and FRA oversight, and taken marine-adjacent projects through the Army Corps of Engineers and the U.S. Coast Guard. We treat regulators as partners in running a safe facility — the paperwork is the floor, not the ceiling.
