During this podcast, AAR's Jefferies provided a detailed overview of the rail carload and intermodal markets.

Themes focused on over the course of this podcast included: the freight railroad elements of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act; the Executive Order issued by the White House and what it means for the freight railroad sector; the state of the global supply chain; and a look at the current state of rail and intermodal volumes.

Jefferies started in his role leading the AAR in January 2019 and prior to that he served as the senior vice president of AAR’s government affairs, overseeing the development, promotion, and implementation of legislative priorities for the AAR. And before joining the AAR, Jefferies served as a senior policy advisor to the Chairman of the U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation, from 2009-2013.
