Our work is getting and keeping Canada’s railway operators in motion - safely and sustainably We work coast-to-coast, in every railway sector, and on any size project. Our commitment is service excellencei and offering our clients exceptional value. Within our team, we call this _Doing It Right_

Our story begins as many others haveflashback to 1965, when A&B Rail Services was formed in British Columbia, Canada by two young and ambitious entrepreneurs with an interest in railway track maintenance and construction. From humble beginnings, and with a steadfast commitment to quality and safety, A&B Rail Services quickly gained a reputation in Western Canada as a trusted maintenance-of-way partner.

Eventually, the business was passed on from father to son and relocated to Edmonton, Alberta. Not content with the status quo, the owners continued to expand their geographic reach, first with the acquisition of Great Plains Rail Contractors in Manitoba and then OWS Railroad Construction & Maintenance in Ontario. The addition of operations in Atlantic Canada shortly ensued and the result was a supplier with coverage from coast to coast an ever-expanding service offering
