Chartwell Agency, an award-winning economic development marketing firm based in northern Illinois, recently partnered with TexAmericas Center, one of the nation’s largest mixed‑use industrial parks, to execute a high‑visibility public relations campaign celebrating the commissioning of two new locomotives that expand the organization’s rail capacity and strengthen regional logistics infrastructure.

TexAmericas Center acquired the locomotives as part of its continued investment in modernizing and growing its transportation capabilities. To support the milestone, Chartwell Agency developed and managed a coordinated public relations initiative designed to showcase the locomotives’ economic significance and reinforce TexAmericas Center’s role as a forward‑thinking industrial hub.

Chartwell delivered a comprehensive PR strategy including event planning, media relations, messaging development, and a custom visual identity that elevated the announcement and positioned the locomotives as symbols of regional progress. The campaign included invitations, talking points, day‑of‑event coordination, press materials, proactive story pitching, and on‑site support to maximize visibility and engagement.

The commissioning event and public relations launch generated strong industry and regional media coverage, strengthened stakeholder awareness of TexAmericas Center’s rail capabilities, and created lasting visuals that support ongoing marketing and business‑attraction efforts.
