Elevating your experience with us, we complement our sales and supply services with an extensive array of locomotive and rolling stock engineering solutions.
Our engineering services go beyond the point of sale, encompassing tasks such as re-gauging secondhand locomotives to match new operators’ needs or integrating improvements into your existing fleet’s life cycle. This may include enhancing environmental and fuel efficiency through re-powering or replacing outdated components.
We prioritize leveraging the manufacturer’s facilities to ensure the expertise of engineers familiar with the locomotive and adherence to the original operator’s standards. However, we remain adaptable to your budget and operating requirements at all times, providing a seamless and personalized experience.
In every used locomotive or rolling stock transaction, Rail Engineering Solutions LLC goes the extra mile by collaborating closely with customers or new operators to fulfill all modification needs. This includes dimensional adjustments, re-gauging, braking system modifications, coupling enhancements, control system adjustments, and more. Whether conducted at the time of sale or managed as a project in your own country, we ensure that every modification requirement is met to your satisfaction. Your seamless experience is our priority.
