RTEX Railcar Leasing and Sales offers gondola railcars designed for transportation
of durable commodities unaffected by weather. Gondolas are built to withstand demanding industrial
service and are commonly used for materials that do not require weather protection.
Their open design allows for easy loading/unloading by crane, magnet, or excavator and can support
both manual and mechanical unloading methods.
