About
The Waterloo Railroad (reporting mark?WLR) is a short-line freight railroad based in Waterloo, Iowa , that began operations in 2024 under Jaguar Transport Holdings . It was formed to take over the lease of Union Pacific’s Waterloo Industrial Lead —approximately 7?miles of former Chicago Great Western trackage —after the prior lease held by the Iowa Northern Railway ended due to Union Pacific’s strategic decision amid the railroad’s sale. The line serves several local customers, handling commodities like grain and meat products , and interchanges with Canadian National (CN) in both Waterloo and nearby Dewar, Iowa , giving shippers access to broader rail networks. The operation continues regional freight service on this industrial lead, supporting local logistics and connections to major carriers.
