The present invention generally relates to a rail transport system having no internal drive, and in particular to an improved rail transport system for conveying bulk materials. The rail transport system includes improvements in functionality, manufacturability and/or modularity and, therefore, can result in a reduction in system component costs, manpower and/or implementation. The rail transport system includes a dump loop and components thereof for enabling unloading of the rail cars in a predetermined location. The components thereof may be designed to be modular to allow for ease of manufacture and installation of the dump loop. The components may be prefabricated for later use on site.
