“As a specialist contractor to the railway industry we see exciting opportunities ahead which is why we have a dedicated Innovation Plant Centre to position the business ahead of our competitors.

Stobart Rail operates and owns an extensive range of earth-moving, excavation and earth removal vehicles, which enables Stobart Rail to tackle the most demanding of tasks. Significant investment in equipment is continuous to ensure Stobart Rail matches the special requirements and demanding timescales of our clients. The large, wholly-owned fleet includes road-rail equipment with a comprehensive series of machine-to-trailer combinations and a host of highly specialised attachments, ranging from tamping and cabling equipment to soil nailing rigs, further enhancing the flexibility of these impressive machines.

Stobart Rail Engineering operates its own well equipped in-house fabrication shop. It is responsible for manufacturing job-specific attachments for use in conjunction with the company’s vehicles. Stobart Rail also own and operate a fleet of re-ballasting machines. These innovative units provide a quick and efficient solution for the removal of ballast without the need for expensive, time consuming track removal and relaying.“
