Witnessing the profound impact of travel restrictions and escalating supply chain costs on businesses, they identified an opportunity to revolutionize the industry.
Each partner brings their own contribution to the team. One partner brings extensive expertise across sales, electrical and mechanical systems, air brakes, locomotive system upgrades, and rail operations. This includes proficiency in equipment evaluations, training, operational assessments, rail infrastructure, manufacturing, remanufacturing, and more. The second partner contributes expertise in consulting, interpersonal skills, financing, accounting, and related areas
Leveraging their combined expertise in manufacturing, international sales, technical support, and design/engineering, these entrepreneurs embarked on a journey to establish RES. Their mission: address the evolving needs of their customers by offering tailored solutions.
With a firm commitment to excellence and a customer-centric approach, RES aims to deliver unparalleled value to clients seeking reliable and efficient rail engineering solutions. By harnessing their extensive experience and forward-thinking mindset, the founders drive positive change and usher in a new era of innovation within the rail industry.

As a beacon of innovation and progress, RES stands ready to shape the future of rail transportation and revolutionize the way we move goods and people across the globe.
RES joined forces with expert global rail professionals, rekindling ties with historical customers, establishing new relationships with various industries worldwide, including class 1 railroads, regional railroads, government entities, private operators, and key industries like steel, cement, chemical, farming, and sugar.
With a solid foundation, RES now has the capability to replace outdated rolling stock with modern or new alternatives, providing surplus rolling stock globally in a cost-effective and timely manner.

Each delivered locomotive undergoes three levels of quality management – the first at the partner facility, the second by the RES engineering and quality assurance team, and the third, most crucial level, involves the customer. This triple-layered quality control approach is unprecedented in the rail industry, showcasing RES’s commitment to providing top-notch care and excellence as a fundamental part of its business model.
