Reliable Rail Service Act of 2025

The Reliable Rail Service Act of 2025 requires rail carriers to provide transportation service that meets shippers' reasonable needs for timely, efficient, and reliable delivery. It directly affects freight rail companies and the businesses (shippers) that rely on rail transport for moving goods. Key provisions mandate the Surface Transportation Board to consider factors like crew availability, equipment maintenance, and shippers' historical service needs when evaluating carrier compliance. The bill also sets strict deadlines: 180 days for violation proceedings and 45 days for resolving service term disputes.
