Eagle Railcar Services (2017), Washington, IN

COMMUNITY IMPACT

Eagle Railcar Services acquired, remediated and renovated the former B&O Railroad Servicing facility, with 10 miles of track and 200,000 square feet of buildings located in rural Washington, Indiana (pop, 12,089), into a full-service railcar service center (the “Project”). The existing facility suffered substantial environmental contamination under its prior ownership and Eagle improved the facility to comply with all appropriate operational and health safety codes. The project provides services to the railroad industry and companies that transport via railcars, including comprehensive general shop services, railcar repair and maintenance, cleaning, painting, lining, heavy wreck damage repair, Tank Car Requalification, Tank Car Modifications, trans-loading/transfers, and railcar storage and mobile repair to railcar owners and lessees.
