YOUR TRUSTED PARTNER FOR ALL YOUR GRADING, EXCAVATION, AND RAIL MAINTENANCE NEEDS.
Cronin Civil and Rail provides industrial rail services for facilities with rail access. Siding construction, rail spurs, transloading, switching systems, and emergency response.
Industrial facilities with rail access operate at the intersection of heavy industrial construction and active railway operations. When your rail infrastructure needs to be built, upgraded, or maintained, you need a contractor who understands both sides. Cronin Civil and Rail delivers industrial rail services that integrate rail connectivity with facility infrastructure while meeting FRA, EPA, and OSHA requirements.
Our services include on-site rail switching, loading and unloading, material management, and the installation and maintenance of dedicated spur tracks.
We work with manufacturing plants, chemical facilities, steel mills, power plants, refineries, and grain elevators across the region, delivering solutions built around their specific demands.
Industrial rail services provide direct rail access to private facilities for efficient loading and unloading, connecting factories, warehouses, and distribution centers to the main freight network. Properties with direct rail access often see lower drayage costs and improved logistics efficiency.
Your rail siding is the link between your facility and the rail network. We handle complete siding projects from design through maintenance, constructing sidings capable of handling heavy freight loads, chemical transport, and specialized rolling stock.
Our maintenance programs keep infrastructure performing consistently while preventing operational disruptions. Chemical facilities and refineries get crews that understand compliance requirements, while steel mills and manufacturing operations get construction engineered for extreme loads and high-frequency movements.
Efficient transfer between rail cars and trucks is a competitive advantage. We construct transloading facilities including rail-to-truck transfer systems, equipment foundations, and loading platforms built around your commodity type and volume requirements.
A well-designed setup reduces handling time, controls labor costs, and keeps logistics moving without bottlenecks.
High-frequency rail car movements require switching systems that are reliable and configured for your site layout. On-site rail switching involves moving railcars and materials within a facility for organizing loading, unloading, or processing.
We engineer and install automated and manual switching systems that route cars efficiently without creating conflict points or safety risks.
Connecting your facility to the mainline requires a spur designed around your cargo. We design and construct custom rail spurs that accommodate throughput requirements for raw materials, finished goods, and hazardous materials.
Our upgrade services modernize existing spurs that no longer match capacity demands, extending their useful life without full replacement.
YEARS COMBINED EXPERIENCE IN CIVIL

SELF PERFORMANCE RATE SO YOU ARE NOT
MANAGING A CHAIN OF SUBCONTRACTORS
Industrial rail infrastructure does not exist independently from the rest of your site. We coordinate track construction with utilities, roadways, drainage systems, and environmental controls.
For facilities expanding or adding rail access, our combined civil and rail capabilities allow one contractor to handle the full scope from earthwork through track installation.
Working inside an active industrial facility requires schedules built around production cycles, planned shutdowns, and off-peak windows. Our goal is to deliver infrastructure improvements that enhance your operation without interrupting it.
Our workforce undergoes safety training, including Hazmat certification and equipment protection procedures. Our regulatory knowledge covers FRA standards, EPA requirements, and OSHA regulations.
Our 24/7 response teams handle derailments, track damage, and infrastructure failures. We also plan long-term rail infrastructure with future expansion in mind.
Your rail connection is too important to leave to a contractor who only understands half the equation. Cronin Civil and Rail brings the industrial construction experience and railway expertise to handle both.
