Derailments are, unfortunately, a fact of railroading…
but they don’t have to be a cause for unnecessary service interruptions. SteelWheels.Co has the capability to swiftly deploy and systematically clear a derailment site while preserving assets and expediting the rebuilding of the right of way to restore service as quickly as possible. Immediate assessment, planning, and execution of the clean-up activity can usually transpire within hours of the derailment. 24/7/365 - round-the-clock service - is available at restoration@steelwheels.co. We will respond in less than minutes.
Immediately post derailment and our team is on-site to evaluate and assess the damage and develop an expedited course of action while coordinating with regulatory agents and management.
We also provide on-site locomotive and railcar dismantling and component reclamation services.
Making room to remove the derailed cars from the mainline to effect immediate restoration of the track and keep the service interruption to a absolute minimum.
We ensure that post-derailment assets are preserved and recovered to minimize loss of reusable and repairable equipment.
We provide commodity reclamation in conjunction with our derailment cleanup services.
With the derailed cars clear of the mainline, the track rebuilding process can start straight away and without further delay.
The track rebuilding process is nearing completion.
