Extending the service life of timber railroad bridges is our signature service. Since 1954, Capital Railroad Services has provided detailed inspections followed by in-place internal treatment for tens of thousands of timber structures across North America.
Our internal treatment services are designed to maximize the performance and longevity of timber bridge components. By carefully placing specialized wood preservatives, we significantly extend the life of critical members and delay costly replacements.
In addition to railroad bridges, county roadway structures and “Rails to Trails” timber bridges are excellent candidates for this service. Any structure that relies on timber piles, caps, or stringers can benefit from a comprehensive internal treatment program.
Every project begins with a thorough timber bridge inspection. Our experienced inspectors evaluate the physical and environmental conditions of each structure to determine the best course of action.
For over 60 years, we have been a strong partner with the railroad industry. Our highly mobile railroad bridge construction, repair and inspection crews have played an important role in restoring railroad bridges throughout North America.
