SRY Locomotive and Car Repair Facility

The SRY Locomotive shop maintains our twenty-nine locomotives and 1000+ railcars to Association of American Railroads (AAR) and government regulation standards. SRY also provides services to outside customers with a reputation for quick turnaround time on all projects. SRY provides most of the same services provided by other locomotive repair shops including changing out engines, generators, components, truck rebuilds, and other minor to major repairs. In addition, ‘one-stop shop’ services offered include:

• providing assistance with purchases of equipment

• providing advice and recommendations on future repair costs

SRY uses ‘composite mechanics’ that are qualified in electrical, mechanical and airbrakes for locomotive repairs. All shops do not offer this efficiency. Specialized equipment available includes a wheel lathe and a wheel press. SRY’s Repair in Place (RIP) track for car repairs has certified carmen who are all qualified welders and inspectors available to modify, upgrade or repair all types of railcars. Projects have included widening, modifying and painting flat cars for a pulp mill, air-brake conversions and upgrades, refitting of antique passenger cars, truck bolster upgrades and rebuilds.
