West Central Ohio Port Authority

How does WESTCO give back?

The West Central Ohio Port Authority operates as a non-profit which is why we can maintain such low rates. The money received is put back into the rail, bridges, and crossings to ensure proper and efficient service. Check out WESTCO's major rehabilitation projects.
Plans for WESTCO's Future

Through the maintenance fee that is collected based on carloads, WESTCO will use those funds combined with grant and loan funds from various resources to fulfill the necessary repairs needed. Check out the 2009-2011 Rail Development Plan that details the upcoming projects.

WESTCO owns 94 miles of track in five counties. Through Rail America and the Indiana and Ohio Railway (IORY) we are able to transport your goods throughout North America. Check out the WESTCO System Map, the IORY System Map, and the WESTCO Counties Served Map.
