Rail Terminal Dwell Times, Latest Week of Data
internal.agtransport.usda.gov | Last Updated 2024-06-06T14:30:27.000ZQuery from the rail terminal dwell times dataset to include only the latest week of data. Additionally, this view also uses all years of the terminal dwell data, but only the current month of each year, to compute an average and standard deviation of terminal dwell time for each yard and provide a sense of seasonal normal levels.

Transportation and Landed Costs of Brazilian Soybeans to China and Germany
internal.agtransport.usda.gov | Last Updated 2024-05-13T14:46:10.000ZThis dataset contains transportation and landed costs of Brazilian soybeans to Shanghai, China and Hamburg, Germany. Transportation costs are broken out by mode and vary by route. The data also contains Brazil farm values to compute total landed costs.

Average Origin Dwell Times, Seasonal Comparison
internal.agtransport.usda.gov | Last Updated 2024-06-06T14:30:25.000ZThis line chart shows average terminal dwell times by month and year. Each year is broken out into a separate line, providing a seasonal comparison to the same month across years. By default, terminal dwell times are averaged across railroads and yards. Use the filters to select different dates, railroads, or yards.

Map of Terminal Dwell Times in the Latest Week of Data
internal.agtransport.usda.gov | Last Updated 2024-06-06T14:30:27.000ZA map where each dot is a rail yard, sized by its reported terminal dwell hours this week, and colored by an indicator of how unusually high or low dwell hours this week are for that yard.

STB Railroad Service Metrics
internal.agtransport.usda.gov | Last Updated 2024-06-06T14:43:34.000ZThe dataset contains weekly rail service metrics from the Surface Transportation Board (STB). The STB began collecting some service metrics from railroads in October 2014 and issued a final rulemaking in March 2017, ultimately collecting data on 11 different categories of rail service (listed below). The STB also collects Chicago-specific metrics that are not included in this dataset. The original STB source data can be found here: https://prod.stb.gov/reports-data/rail-service-data/. This dataset is a compilation of all 11 categories in a single table. The single-table approach offers a convenient way to access all of the data at once, and it enables the use of the "global filter" feature in the Agricultural Rail Service Metrics dashboard found here: https://internal.agtransport.usda.gov/stories/s/jxpf-zf6y. For those that wish to work with each category separately (or to view the metadata for each category), the 11 individual tables can be accessed at the following URLs: Carloadings: https://agtransport.usda.gov/d/tb7q-kn5i. Train Speeds: https://agtransport.usda.gov/d/2wy9-nmz4. Origin Dwell Times: https://agtransport.usda.gov/d/34cn-rk65. Terminal Dwell Times: https://agtransport.usda.gov/d/9z94-b4fw.

Rail Terminal Dwell Times
internal.agtransport.usda.gov | Last Updated 2024-06-06T14:30:27.000ZWeekly terminal dwell time data from the Surface Transportation Board’s (STB) Rail Service Metrics. The STB began collecting service metrics from railroads in October 2014. As part of their submission to the STB, railroads provide average terminal dwell time, measured in hours, excluding cars on runthrough trains (i.e., cars that arrive at, and depart from, a terminal on the same through train) for the carrier’s system and its 10 largest terminals in terms of railcars processed. (Terminal dwell is the average time a car resides at a specified terminal location expressed in hours.)
