North Rail Oy is a private Finnish freight railway operator. The company was founded in 2019 as a subsidiary of the Estonian railway operator Operail with the name Operail Finland Oy,[1] and got its current name in 2023 when it was acquired by Finnish logistics company Nurminen Logistics and other investors.[2] The company operates using nine class Dr20 and three class Dr21 diesel locomotives.[3]

The company started transporting nickel and fertilizers from the Russian border to Finland after the state-owned VR Group withdrew its cross-border traffic following the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022.[4]
