Intramotev to run autonomous freight railcars on a Missouri short line under $16.2 million grant

The Federal Railroad Administration picked the City of Columbia for a $16.2 million grant that will put two of Intramotev's TugVolt self-driving railcars on the 21.4-mile Columbia Terminal Railroad. Service starts with remote switching and is meant to grow into autonomous freight runs along the whole line, including public crossings.
