Common questions
- What is ExpressRail Elizabeth?
- It is the Port Authority's on-dock intermodal rail facility serving the Elizabeth marine terminals (APM and Maher), with CSX and Norfolk Southern service.
- How fast do I need to recover a box grounded at ExpressRail?
- Rail free time is shorter than marine demurrage, often measured in a couple of working days. We treat grounding day as recovery day whenever the receiver can take the freight.
