About

Parallel Systems is the only startup with Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) approval to run autonomous battery-electric railcars on active commercial rail networks. The FRA approval — which took years to obtain — is a regulatory moat that no competitor has replicated. Parallel's commercial pilot, launched in Georgia in 2025, is generating real operational data on active freight rail and building the safety record needed for broader commercial deployment.
