The TriCity Olympia Railroad

The Tri-City Railroad (TCRY), established in 1999, is a Class III common carrier railroad based in Kennewick, Washington. As a small company with 5 employees, TCRY operates under a long-term lease agreement with the Port of Benton (POB). The company's operations are essential to the economic growth of Eastern Washington, facilitating trade and fostering development within Benton County. TCRY acts as the Union Pacific Railroad agent and handling carrier in Richland, Washington. Their core business involves originating and terminating rail freight daily, connecting UPRR customers to destinations across the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Beyond traditional rail services, TCRY offers a range of additional services, including transloading, trucking, fabrication, track repair and construction, consulting for railroad customers, and providing technical expertise. They also provide industrial property for customer use, further contributing to local job creation and economic stimulation. TCRY's commitment to safety and employee welfare is demonstrated through their Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) with the International Union of Operating Engineers (IUOE) Local 280 and the Hanford Atomic Metal Trades Council (HAMTC).
