 Heavy scrap rates of older railcars in the U.S., coupled with global mandates supporting the use of freight rail over competing and carbon-intensive transportation modes, could bode well for railcar manufacturer Greenbrier in 2023 and beyond. Industry projections forecast that around 60,000 railcars will be built in 2023 as new railcars not only replace the scrapped cars but are also built in response to market conditions, executives with the Lake Oswego, Oregon-based company told investors when discussing Greenbriers results for the first quarter of 2022 on Friday.
