Best Trading Shop for Crude-by-Rail Scheduler

Hey everyone,

I am a scheduler for a small O&G company. I studied economics at a Canadian school and worked a year in an operations role for a Class I railroad after graduation before moving to the customer side.

All the people I've heard of going from scheduler to trader on this forum come from pipeline scheduling backgrounds. I schedule refined products and crude oil unit trains by rail for my company. I'm wondering if there is a specific trading shop or oil major that values rail scheduling experience as much as pipeline scheduling? Any shops that have rail movement as a big part of their physical hedge? I am willing to move anywhere and hold both US and Canadian citizenship.

Thanks in advance for any help.
