Our Services

Con Logistics provides a wide range of regionally-focused rail & world-wide logistics services. We take the complicated, the awkward, and the sometimes legally questionable, and move it reliably (usually).

Rail Service

Serving industries with active spurs and sidings. If there’s track to your door, we can spot cars, swap loads, and make your neighbours wonder what’s going on.

Transloading Facility

Where cargo changes outfits faster than a magician on speed. Rail, truck, or whatever: if it can be moved, we move it.

Charter Passenger Rail

Scenic industrial services on refurbished post-war rolling stock. Uncomfortable seats, unpredictable timetables.

Special Cargo

Discreet handling for oversized rubber ducks, commemorative anvils, and “absolutely legal” fireworks. Chain-of-custody optional.

Freight Solutions

Door-to-door freight planning, consolidation, and creative last-mile ideas — including inventive use of flatbeds and very patient staff.

Infrastructure & Maintenance

Track upkeep, minor earthworks, and emergency repairs. We keep things rolling — sometimes literally.

Consulting

Operational advice on logistics choreography, paperwork performance art, and strategic derailment avoidance (metaphorical and otherwise).

Discreet Transport

Special permits, night runs, and silent routes. We move “fragile” cargo with shadows as cover and questions off the table.

Our Divisions

South Down Rail Service

Private charter passenger and light freight operations, set along scenic industrial routes and powered by at least two locomotives with character.

Con Freight Solutions

Commercial freight planning and door-to-door logistics. Proudly imperfect, reliably on the move.

Infrastructure Division

Track maintenance, signalling odd-jobs, and ad-hoc bridge inspections when paperwork permits.

Our History

Founded in 1883* by the enigmatic industrialist Bartholomew Con, Con Logistics has navigated a century of changing maps, misplaced manifestos, and at least one goat-related scandal. We evolved from a small local carrier to the proud, slightly bewildered global operator we are today.

*Give or take a decade.

Preferably do not call after midnight unless the shipment is truly dubious.

About Us

Con Logistics is part regional rail operator, part improvisational logistics studio. We combine old-fashioned know-how with modern paperwork avoidance techniques to move a wide variety of questionable cargo anywhere in the world — and we mean anywhere. Our staff is practical, slightly sarcastic, and very good at securing straps.

We value safety, reliability, and a healthy appreciation for the absurd. If you have a tricky shipment, unusual timeline, or moral ambiguity, we’re probably the team you want to call.
