Talleyrand Terminal Railroad

4.9.13

 

This 173-acre terminal has 4,780 linear feet (1,457m) of berthing space on 40 feet (12.2m) of deepwater.

 

The terminal handles containerized and breakbulk cargoes, imported automobiles and liquid bulk commodities such as turpentine and vegetable oil. Breakbulk cargoes include steel, lumber and paper, and a variety of frozen and chilled goods. Talleyrand is equipped with four container cranes, on-dock rail and 160,000 square feet of transit shed space capable of handling cargo in refrigerated, freezer or ambient conditions. Additionally, a 553,000-square foot warehouse stores a variety of cargoes, including rolls of fine and specialty papers, magazine papers and newsprint.

 

The Talleyrand terminal also offers two 50-LT capacity rubber tired gantry cranes, both of which straddle four rail spurs totaling 4,800 linear feet (1,463 m). Talleyrand's on-dock rail facilities are run by Talleyrand Terminal Railroad, Inc., which provides direct switching service for Norfolk Southern and CSX railroads. The terminal is only 25 minutes from Florida East Coast Railroad's intermodal ramp, and is conveniently located within minutes of interstates I-95 and I-10.
