Why RailTrucks?
Not Too Big. Not Too Small. Just Right.
RailTrucks is privately held, debt-free, and owner-operated. This is important because it allows us the financial fluidity to work on spec, keep trucks in stock and ship your truck quicker. By contrast, our competitors include small, cash-strapped shops, with little to no inventory, who require an order before starting a build; or large, privately-owned conglomerates with spotty processes and impersonal support.
Leading Through Innovation
If you’d like to geek out on the latest in remote drive technology, you’ve come to the right place. Our remote drive grapple trucks can be completely maneuvered from a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) and serviced through an integrated dashboard.
From the crow’s nest, you have full control of the chassis engine and transmission for remote drive, PTO engagement and access to all the chassis and system sensor info. Far superior to mechanical guiding systems used by our competitors.
Building Trucks is in Our Blood
Our family tree is made up of subsidiaries with years of building special purpose trucks for aviation ground support, oil fields, refined fuels, sewer & septic, portable restrooms, and liquid waste customers. Totaled, we have more than 100 years of truck design and engineering expertise and the know-how and proven processes to deliver exactly what you need.
BETTER TOGETHER
We feel it’s crucial to the success of each build to understand your truck’s specific needs. RailTrucks reviews all specifications in great detail to determine a build that both satisfies requirements while being mindful of any unneeded expense. The process often requires working closely with you and your company to ensure you understand the build details and are completely on board before moving forward.

Every Step of the Way
Working together includes staying informed. RailTrucks provides every customer a unique “under the hood” view as your truck is being built. Once your build starts, you’ll receive access to live data, such as a production schedule, bill of materials, serialized parts list, all technical information, and a reference picture of the unit.
Engineered from the ground up
Our team of twelve, experienced design engineers, build over 600 trucks every year for the rail, aviation, vacuum, and fleet fueling industries. We supply trucks to over 40 different countries throughout the world. Each truck starts at the drawing table, where required features and specifications are engineered into the best possible solution for our customer.
Support
RailTrucks knows our customers are essential to the success of our business and should always be treated with kindness and respect. We are committed to providing exceptional customer service and support and take immense satisfaction in every truck we deliver and pleasure in every happy customer.
Service
If there is a service issue, it is entered into our integrated case management system and routed to the appropriate technician. Our service technicians then have full access to the data needed to solve the issue. When resolved, the case is closed, and that data is logged for future reference.
