Denver-based Alpenglow Rail, specializing in operating and growing rail businesses, has acquired two major Texas and Louisiana rail facilities from USA Rail Terminals.

The Port Arthur facility has capacity to store over 900 railcars, switches over 15,000 carloads per year, and provides a full suite of rail services.
The Louisiana acquired facility is an 85-acre, Union Pacific Railroad served facility in Louisiana, within the heart of the Port Allen and Baton Rouge industrial markets. it is located near companies such as ExxonMobil, Tokai Carbon, Placid Refinery, and Dow Chemical.

The Port Allen facility switches over 15,000 carloads per year, transloads a diverse commodity mix, and provides railcar cleaning solutions.
"USA Rail and the High Roller team had a lot of vision and built a great business. The facilities are state-of-the-art and built to last. The USA Rail assets are strategically located in excellent industrial markets and are well-positioned for both defensibility and growth," said Alpenglow's CEO, Rich Montgomery. "With our relationships, marketing capabilities and commitment to safety and customer service, we're thrilled to work alongside the USA Rail team to continue to grow these companies, and to explore future opportunities with the High Roller team."
