Princeton TMX, a Fort Wayne-based transportation management system, has partnered with Telegraph, a pioneering rail technology solutions provider, to launch a full suite of modern rail products in its multi-modal TMS for shippers across North America. Shippers can now manage their rail operations directly on the Princeton TMX platform, making shipping by rail easier and more seamless.
“At Princeton TMX, we’re relentlessly solving the hardest logistics problems for modern shippers,” said Mark McEntire, CEO of Princeton TMX. “With Telegraph’s technology embedded directly into our TMS, our customers can manage their end-to-end shipments without needing to log into any additional systems.”
Princeton TMX serves a diverse range of rail shippers across manufacturing, metals, mining, building products, chemicals, agriculture, and food and beverage. The company’s rail system was built in collaboration with some of the largest industrial shippers in North America, designed to address the historically manual, fragmented nature of rail operations. It simplified the entire lifecycle of a rail shipment, from booking to tracking to demurrage, within a unified TMS.
“A rail shipper can now generate an initial rail booking, access precise arrival predictions, generate accurate equipment forecasts, and manage demurrage with advanced tooling all without leaving the Princeton TMX platform,” said Harris Ligon, Co-Founder + CEO. “This is a step forward in modernizing the shipper experience of incorporating freight rail into their shipping modes.”
This product release allows shippers to more effectively manage their rail shipments and enhances their ability to make real-time decisions against service impacts. Princeton TMX and Telegraph will continue expanding this program to deliver advanced technology to waitlisted customers through the end of the year.
“This partnership is just the beginning,” added McEntire. “We’re building the most complete rail management experience in the market. Princeton TMX and Telegraph are on a mission to help shippers manage rail freight faster, leaner, and smarter.”
