This cloud-based CRTM system is expected to help KCS fulfil current and future requirements, as well as avoid lengthy deployment schedules and costly infrastructure investments.

CloudMoyo president and CEO Manish Kedia said: “KCS is recognised as an innovative, customer-focused leader in the rail and transportation industry.
