CO2 by Rail: Building the Infrastructure Behind Carbon Capture

As carbon capture projects expand across North America, carbon dioxide (CO₂) is becoming more than an industrial byproduct—it is emerging as a new freight commodity requiring safe, reliable and efficient transportation solutions. Industries including ethanol, cement, steel, hydrogen and fertilizer production are investing in carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) to reduce emissions while continuing to produce the materials and fuels that support modern life. Once captured, however, CO₂ must be transported from production facilities to permanent storage locations, creating a growing need for t
