SERVICES
RAILCAR REPAIR
UNBEATABLE TURNAROUND TIMES, COMMUNICATION, AND PROBLEM-SOLVING SKILLS
At Cathcart Rail we inspect hundreds of rail cars per day for compliance with AAR and FRA standards. Each day we identify and repair defects that result in a safer and more productive North American rail network for customers, shippers, railroad employees and the communities we serve. Cathcart Rail adds value for TGS customers by keeping their rail cars safe and ready for service with no delays.



Daily, our teams inspect all railcars that arrive in the industrial park. We check the wheels and truck castings, the brake systems and coupling components, safety appliances like ladders and crossover boards, and the integrity of the car bodies for loading and unloading. When we spot defects, we make repairs before the car gets to the customer. This allows the cars to be ready for service when they arrive at the shipper’s facility. Our work prevents rejections and gives customers the security of knowing the car is safe for movement.
Since operations began April 2023, our team has performed over 24,000 repairs on over 8000 cars in the park.
