Commercial Tax Savings – Chicago Rail and Port Railroad

With minimal post-engagement support required, Fulcrum transitioned this limestone site to railroad status smoothly—resulting in significant tax savings without local resistance.

Chicago Rail and Port Railroad

Though its name is easily confused with another local rail operation, this limestone processing facility was a solid success story in its own right. Fulcrum completed the STB designation, and aside from assisting with initial tax filings, had minimal post-engagement involvement. There were no contested assessments and no major twists—just a clean transition to railroad property status. It's a good example of how Fulcrum’s approach often involves “quiet victories” where everything works smoothly behind the scenes.
