In 1935, Cyrus Holland founded Holland Co, now Holland LP, to supply railroad car snubbers to the industry. Today, Holland is celebrating 75 years in the railroad supply business.

Cyrus Holland sold the company in 1965. In 1996, the company purchased a Swiss company that held the rights to a Russian rail-welding system, thus entering the rail-welding business. In  1974, Curran Group, the current owners, bought the company.

Today, Holland is the world leader in flash-butt rail welding. In addition to full-service welding (mobile, fixed plant and containerized), the company also builds rail equipment, performs track testing, cleans and repairs railcars, designs and operates transloading pods and manufactures components for railcars. Holland LP moved it its present location in Crete, Ill, in 1998.
