Pioneer Railcorp




Pioneer Railcorp (OTC Pink No Information: PRRR) is a holding company for a number of American short-line railroads. Other subsidiaries offer locomotive and freight car leasing to its own railroads and to third parties, and also freight car cleaning. Pioneer also has interests in real estate and newsletter publishing.[1]


The company, originally named Pioneer Railroad Company, was founded in January 1986 by Guy L. Brenkman. The company raised the capital for its first acquisition through a self-underwritten public stock offering. It continued this method of raising capital for subsequent acquisitions.


Almost all of the short lines owned by Pioneer are lines spun off by Class I railroads.
