Haz Hazar ardous dous Ma Mater terials ials • For US Railroads Hazardous Materials Account for:  5% of total U.S. freight rail carloads  5% of tonnage  6% of ton-miles • 68% of rail hazmat travels in tank cars • 28% on intermodal flat cars; the remainder in covered hoppers, gondolas, and other car types • The most potentially hazardous materials, termed toxic inhalation hazards (TIH) are nearly all transported in tank cars. TIH materials constitutes only about 0.3 % of all rail carloads. In 2012 TIH shipment declined about 15% as safer alternatives are developed and transported. 2
