Inspections

Routine railway maintenance is vital in avoiding safety issues and unforeseen track outages. American Track’s maintenance professionals can identify areas of concern before they become violations or present hazards. We offer a range of inspection plans ranging from bi-weekly to yearly inspections, which cover everything from single track sidings to manufacturing facilities with several miles of track.

Maintenance

 

Train track maintenance and inspections go hand in hand. Our maintenance team is equipped to fix any problems identified by our inspectors or other third-party inspection companies. We offer several maintenance programs depending on the needs of our customers. We take care of routine maintenance items such as rail lubrication and switch cleaning, as well as, irregular maintenance items such as switch point welding, rail replacement, and many other services.
