Established in 1994 by Charles “Chuck” Smith and Nancy Pointer, our journey began with a singular focus - rail expansion projects. Initially, we served the Port of New Orleans with rail construction and rehabilitation services. In 2001, Chuck Smith assumed full ownership, solidifying our commitment to quality and safety.
Over nearly three decades, we've transformed from a local entity to a regional force. Our scope expanded to include maintenance services for industrial facilities stretching from Baton Rouge to New Orleans. Driven by a commitment to trustworthiness and a no-frills approach, we've ventured beyond our local footprint. Today, we proudly serve the Class 1, Short Line Railroads, Industrial and Port Facilities throughout the Southeastern United States, standing as a beacon of reliability.
Dedication has been the cornerstone of our journey. We've built a reputation grounded in safety, quality, and productivity. In 2023, we embraced a new chapter, joining forces with Andrew Wilson of Wilson Rail Services, while remaining steadfast in our core values.
