As part of this new order, Axion will also be pre-plating the ties so they're ready for immediate installation. The ties are being installed in new track in a very humid, wet environment where Axion's ECOTRAX perform well, as they are impervious to the outdoor weather elements.
"This is a significant step for Axion in that we're expanding our relationships and sales into another of the nation's largest rail lines," stated Axion CEO and President Steve Silverman.
