AXION ties to be used in transit station and yard rehabilitation project
Written by Mischa Wanek-Libman, editorAXION International Holdings, Inc., received $1 million in orders for ECOTRAX® rail ties to be installed in a northeast-based transit line's rail yard and station.
The rehabilitation project is in a Hurricane Sandy-affected area that sustained major damage from flooding. The ECOTRAX ties will be installed in the spring.
“Like our tunnel-tie project for a different northeast-based transit line, this rehabilitation project specifies all ECOTRAX ties,” noted Cory Burdick, director for the ECOTRAX rail products division. “The entire rail yard and station are going to be completed solely with ECOTRAX ties, including all turnouts and mainline ties, a first for our company.”
