North American Commodity Flow Map

Origins, ports, inland ports, barge hubs, and border crossings — the rail freight hubs that move grain, coal, chemicals, forest products, autos, and intermodal freight across the continent. Click a hub to see what moves through it and pull a rate from there.

How to use: Toggle layers in the legend to filter by hub type. Click any marker to see what moves through that hub and pull an indicative rate from that origin.
Hub list is curated for shipper orientation. Capabilities, carrier coverage, and lane economics change frequently — talk to us before committing freight. Steel Wheel Logistics is a rail logistics provider; we do not operate the listed hubs and we do not offer binding rates from any of them.
