Lease Information

  • Among other requirements, a credit check will be done on all potential lessees, and a contract agreement will be signed before the first car can ship.
  • All cars are furnished subject to inspection and acceptance by the lessee. Loading of the car will constitute acceptance.
  • Rental rate for each car is on a per car per month basis which covers the rail car only.

  • Upon return of the cars they may be inspected to determine if there is any damage (e.g., missing material, corrosion, etc.) or any additional cleaning required for which lessee will be solely responsible.
  • Cars must be returned in a cleaned condition by lessee unless otherwise agreed upon.
