Logo of short line company OmniTraxLIMA, Ohio — Rail and logistics firm OmniTRAX has been selected to provide switching for Procter & Gamble’s laundry-products factory in Lima, the third P&G manufacturing served by the OmniTRAX network.

The new agreement became effective Nov. 1. OmniTRAX affiliate OmniTRAX Lima Industrial will switch daily inbound cars to the plans and return empty cars to the outbound track at the 550-acre facility. Along with switching, the agreement includes rail inspection, maintenance, and repair, and corresponding operational reporting.

“We are pleased to add P&G’s Lima operations to the OmniTRAX rail network,” Chief Commercial Officer Ryan Higgins said in a press release. “P&G Manufacturing continues to set the standard of operational efficiency, and we are honored to once again be entrusted with the responsibility of keeping their domestic supply chains moving.”

The Lima facility recently announced a $500 million expansion project, to be completed in 2026.

OmniTRAX operates 28 railroads and provides switching for ports, industrial parks, and industries across the country.
