Florida East Coast Railway has been moving freight since the 1800s, and it is still driving Florida’s economy forward. In this live episode from the Florida Supply Chain Summit, Blythe Brumleve sits down with Spencer Jury, Director of Domestic Intermodal at FEC, to explore how the railway connects Jacksonville to Miami and why intermodal shipping is becoming one of the most reliable and sustainable modes in logistics.
Spencer shares insights on FEC’s 351-mile network, how automation and technology are reshaping operations, and what the future holds for Florida’s freight infrastructure. They also dive into the company’s history, modern efficiency upgrades, and what shippers should know before moving freight by rail.

• How Florida East Coast Railway connects Jacksonville to Miami in under 10 hours
• Why intermodal shipping offers cost stability, reliability, and sustainability advantages
• How FEC’s non-stacked facilities reduce handling and damage risk
