The Kindred Terminal project will replace end-of-life grain storage and receiving assets, which should improve facility reliability and speed. Receiving speed will be increased by 10,000 bushels per hour while loadout speed will increase by 20,000 bushels per hour. Load time for shuttle trains is expected to decrease by six hours. The goal of the project is to improve speed, space and efficiency at the Kindred Terminal location.
