Our Projects

Our Customer Commitment

Making Each Client Feel Like the Only Client
Since each and every client is an important client to the firm, Railroad Consultants’ philosophy is to make each client feel as if they are the only client.

With sufficient man power, adequate work load distribution, and quick response time, Railroad Consultants is dedicated to providing an extraordinary level of service to each client in order to exceed their expectations.

Ensuring Successful Projects
A successful project is one that is successful to not only our clients and their employees, but also to Railroad Consultants, its employees, and other members of the design team. Achieving this goal requires the utmost attention to safety, good communication, honest practice, and hard work on a consistent basis.
Immediate Responsiveness
Because we understand the cost of delays during design and construction, Railroad Consultants responds promptly to time sensitive issues. The firm has structured its communication network in order for clients to reach a staff member whenever needed. Railroad Consultants provides a licensed Professional Engineer that is on call 24/7 to clients in order to respond to critical project schedules.
What Makes Railroad Consultants Different?
Practical experience sets us apart from other firms. In addition to the specialized expertise in railroad design, Railroad Consultants employs individuals with decades of field experience with short line, regional, and Class I railroads. This type of practical experience is extremely rare in the design community, yet is equally valuable to the success of a project. Having the ability to create engineering design documents based on relevant practical experience provides invaluable benefits to the project.
