Get Involved!

Until the creation of EMFRC, Massachusetts has no organized forum focused exclusively on freight rail interests in Eastern Massachusetts. We seek to promote and support actions by both public and private entities geared to leveraging Freight Rail’s recognized benefits for economic development, environmental and congestion relief, fuel economy, easing the strain on public infrastructure, and fostering improved land use.

Prospective EMFR Coalition members include:

Active freight rail users in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Hampshire and Southern Maine that receive goods from Eastern Massachusetts via rail.

Logistics service vendors (local cartage firms, transloaders, warehousemen, etc.)

Public sector units/elements whose own respective charters have synergies with EMFRC's

Special interest groups (environmental, land use, planners, etc.)

Freights RR’s (segmented as below):

a. line-haul RR’s that now serve eastern Mass
b. connecting shortlines in the area
c. other freight RR’s operating in MA

Communities and other citizen groups seeking to improve transportation infrastructure.
