Berkshire Hathaway’s Marmon Rail has introduced Transco Rail Services, a unified repair identity that brings together UTLX Field Services, Procor Field Services, and Transco Fixed Repair Shops under one name. The move creates a single, clearly branded partner for railcar owners and shippers, simplifying access to shop repairs, on-site programs, mobile railcar repair, and mobile tank car cleaning—while maintaining the same safety, compliance, and quality standards customers expect.
“Customers have asked for a simpler way to engage our network,” said Bob Nelson, Group President of Transco Rail Services. “With one identity, one standard, and clear accountability, it’s easier to schedule work, reduce handoffs, and keep fleets in service.”
The new brand reflects an integrated approach already operating across North America, allowing customers to tailor the right combination of on-site support and fixed-shop capacity to their fleet needs—now under a single name designed to make doing business easier.
Leadership emphasized that while the name is new, the foundation remains unchanged. “Our people, safety programs, and disciplined quality procedures continue to be the basis of every job we do,” said Craig Rioux, President of Transco Shop Services.
UTLX and Procor will remain Marmon Rail’s brands of record for manufacturing, full-service leasing, and leased fleet repair. Transco Rail Services will continue delivering on-site and mobile repair services for the UTLX PROX fleet, while also supporting the broader railcar owner community.
Effective January 1, Transco Rail Services began appearing on all communications, with the new logo rolling out across uniforms and facilities. The organization supports customers across North America through 13 full-service fixed shops and more than 100 on-site and mobile repair locations, offering inspections and qualifications, running repairs, heavy shop work, and tank car cleaning for tank and freight cars of all manufacturers.
