FIRST THE TRAIN TRANSFORMS, THEN COMMUNITIES DO.

RAIL REIMAGINED

The 559 is committed to the future of rail in the U.S.—reimagining how rail transport is used, making it more vital to America’s farmers and the delivery of farm-to-table goods to underserved communities. Revitalizing underutilized rail depots across the country is part of this future, as well as enabling more sustainable practices in rail and farming, new business opportunities, and urban renewal.

The U.S. is the most wasteful country on the planet. Farmers lose over 50% of their crop to waste due to supply chain inefficiencies.

The core mission is to optimize the existing ecosystems and infrastructure in urban renewal areas to improve their value and efficiency to the greater communities they serve. With the clear goal in mind of urban renewal.
