🛣️ Route & Scenery

Waverly → Dubuque (Deadhead Leg)
Crossing northeastern Iowa, rolling farmland, grain storage, cow/calf operations, and open prairie contouring.
Dubuque sits on the Mississippi River Bluff, where farmland gives way to river valley hills and historic industrial riverfront districts.

Dubuque → Olathe (Reloaded Southbound Leg)
From Dubuque, we’ll begin the push southwest across Iowa and into the Kansas City metro, following major agricultural and consumer distribution corridors. Expect:
• Feed mills
• Rail sidings
• Logistics hubs
• And increased volume as we approach Olathe supply chain zones

This lane is part of the Midwest Pet Food & Consumer Goods Distribution Network, linking Iowa production facilities with Missouri / Kansas metro markets.
