A safe, reliable railroad bridge starts with a strong tie deck. Over time, heavy loads, weather, and constant traffic wear down timber ties and bridge decks, reducing capacity and structural integrity. Capital Railroad Services provides turnkey tie deck replacement that restores strength, extends bridge life, and keeps rail traffic moving safely.
Every project starts with a detailed bridge inspection. Our team evaluates the timber, concrete, and steel components connected to the deck, identifying early signs of distress before they become major problems.
Our focus is to restore the tie deck while preserving as much of the existing structure as possible, helping reduce the need for full bridge replacement.
We also provide detailed reports with photos, measurements, condition ratings, and repair priorities to support budgeting and long-term planning. All inspection and replacement records are stored in a secure digital database, giving your team an organized, upgradeable system that supports compliance with state and federal bridge inspection requirements.
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.
