The USA-headquartered transportation service company will acquire rail infrastructure assets and related equipment at six major North American sites. Watco will provide select rail services at Dow’s flagship locations in Freeport and Seadrift, Texas; St. Charles and Plaquemine, Louisiana; and Fort Saskatchewan and Prentiss in Alberta, Canada.
