Canadian-based MineHub Technologies, which provides digital supply chain solutions for the commodity markets, is integrating with Railinc, a subsidiary of the Association of American Railroads (AAR) and the central data exchange for the North American rail industry.
The integration enhances MineHub’s rail tracking capabilities, providing customers with unprecedented visibility and insights into their rail shipments from the moment an organization is listed on the waybill.
“We are thrilled to partner with Railinc and offer our customers unparalleled visibility into their rail shipments,” said Andrea Aranguren, CEO of MineHub.
“This integration is a testament to our commitment to providing the most comprehensive and reliable supply chain solutions for the commodity markets.”
Railinc serves as the digital backbone of the North American freight rail network, processing over 300 million daily transactions related to rail movements, including waybills and car movements. It monitors over 11 million railcar movement events each day across more than 600 rail carriers throughout the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
These events capture individual railcar location changes, which may occur multiple times per journey. As the trusted hub for waybill data, Railinc provides the accuracy and reliability critical for seamless rail logistics connecting thousands of supply chain stakeholders.
This integration marks a significant advancement in MineHub’s ongoing commitment to deliver innovative, data-driven solutions that optimize supply chain operations. The partnership with Railinc offers several key benefits:
- Direct access to comprehensive tracking updates from Railinc’s authoritative rail event network, reducing reliance on supplier-provided data and ensuring more accurate and reliable information.

- Faster, more accurate tracking updates with lower latency and a reduced risk of duplicate or erroneous events, contributing to increased operational efficiency and potential cost reductions for MineHub’s customers.
- Visibility across both inbound and outbound rail shipments through a single authorization process, streamlining the tracking experience and saving time for users.
- A foundation for future feature development aimed at further streamlining operations and delivering measurable time and cost savings for MineHub customers, supporting the company’s position in the industry.
By leveraging Railinc’s extensive data network, MineHub continues to revolutionize the digital supply chain landscape, empowering customers with the insights and tools they need to optimize their operations and drive success in an increasingly competitive market.
