Overview:
For legal and regulatory historical reasons, our rail system is comprised of three entities (the DM&E Railroad, the IC&E Railroad, and Cedar American Rail Holdings) that are operated as a single system under common ownership and common management. Roughly 1,000 employees drive the system. 150 of those are Cedar American employees, which means they work for both operating railroads together, providing operations, marketing, IT, and other administration support. The two operating railroads account for the balance of the other 1,000 employees. The system collectively owns over 8,000 rail cars and about 200 locomotives. Sioux Falls is headquarters for the entire system. DM&E Railroad began operations in 1986. Today it is one of the largest regional (Class II) railroads in the United States , with 1,103 miles of track located principally in South Dakota and Minnesota . The DM&E's mainline extends from the Mississippi River at Winona , Minnesota across southern Minnesota and central South Dakota to Rapid City . In 1996 acquired more than 200 miles of track from UP, extending from Colony, Wyoming through Rapid City to Crawford, Nebraska . Of the 1,103 miles, 908 miles are owned by the DM&E and the remainder are operated under long-term trackage rights agreements. | |
