On today’s show we are looking at the value of a piece of property that has a rail connection on it. 

When it comes to transportation and logistics, rail is significantly less expensive than trucking. Rail costs about $0.02 per ton mile versus about $0.10 per ton mile or more when transporting by truck. For bulk commodities, and for shipping containers rail can be much less expensive. 

That means that transporting a 20 foot long shipping a container by truck from Los Angeles to New York would cost about $7,500. By comparison, that same trip by rail would cost about $1,400. The savings are substantial. But once you get the rail car to the destination, you still need to switch from rail to road for the last mile, or perhaps the last few miles. This short haul trip is going to be disproportionately expensive.
