Railroad cars are cleaned using a combination of high-pressure water jets, industrial detergents, and sometimes even steam cleaning to remove residues. Specialized facilities have equipment to handle various cleaning protocols based on the previous and next cargo. This ensures contaminants are thoroughly removed, making the cars safe for different materials and preventing cross-contamination.
