Eric Marchetto, executive vice president and chief financial officer at Trinity Industries, appeared on the FreightWaves Today podcast on October 7, 2026, to discuss recent rail traffic data from the Association of American Railroads and the state of the rail industry. During the conversation, he said the industry is projected to build about 25,000 rail cars this year while scrapping more than 35,000, which he said would continue to shrink the North American fleet despite healthy carload volumes. Marchetto also commented on customer capital expenditure decisions, comparing uncertainty over project costs to driving in fog, saying that when costs are unclear, industrial shippers tend to delay decisions. The episode also covered a potential storm affecting Gulf Coast refineries and its possible impact on freight, though Marchetto's remarks focused on rail market conditions.
