360 Rail Services is seeking an experienced and safety-focused Railroad Tamper & Regulator Operator with experience operating a 6700 Tamper and KBR 925 Ballast Regulator. This position will support industrial railroad construction, rehabilitation, and maintenance projects throughout the United States.
Location
This position can be based anywhere in the United States. 360 Rail Services' primary offices are located in La Porte, Texas and Englewood, Colorado.
This is a traveling field position, and candidates should be prepared to travel to project locations throughout the country based on operational needs.
Position Summary
The Tamper & Regulator Operator will be responsible for safely operating, inspecting, and maintaining track maintenance equipment used to surface, align, and dress railroad track. The ideal candidate has hands-on experience operating a 6700 Tamper and KBR 925 Regulator in industrial railroad environments.
This position may require extended workdays, weekends, and work in active industrial facilities depending on project requirements.
Primary Responsibilities
  • Safely operate a 6700 Tamper to surface, line, level, and correct railroad track.
  • Safely operate a KBR 925 Ballast Regulator to properly distribute, shape, and dress ballast.
  • Perform daily equipment inspections and pre-operation checks.
  • Identify equipment issues and perform routine maintenance and minor repairs when qualified.
  • Recognize mechanical problems as they arise and communicate equipment issues promptly to minimize downtime.
  • Work closely with foremen, track crews, and other equipment operators to complete projects safely and efficiently.
  • Understand track geometry, proper ballast profiles, track elevation, alignment, and basic railroad construction practices.
  • Follow all company, customer, FRA, and applicable railroad safety requirements.
  • Participate in job briefings and follow established work plans.
  • Maintain equipment cleanliness and report mechanical problems promptly.
  • Assist with other railroad construction and maintenance duties when equipment operation is not required.
  • Maintain a professional attitude while working at customer facilities and project sites.
Qualifications
Required:
  • Previous experience operating railroad track maintenance equipment.
  • Demonstrated experience operating a 6700 Tamper and/or KBR 925 Ballast Regulator.
  • Strong understanding of railroad track construction and maintenance.
  • Ability to safely work around moving equipment and active railroad operations.
  • Ability to perform physically demanding outdoor work in varying weather conditions.
  • Willingness and ability to travel extensively throughout the United States.
  • Ability to work extended hours, weekends, and changing schedules when required.

Preferred:
  • Experience operating both the 6700 Tamper and KBR 925 Regulator.
  • Industrial railroad construction and maintenance experience.
  • Experience with track surfacing, lining, leveling, ballast distribution, and final track dressing.
  • Mechanical aptitude and the ability to troubleshoot mechanical or equipment issues as they arise is a plus.

What We're Looking For
We are looking for an operator who knows the equipment, understands track, and takes pride in producing quality work. The right candidate will be dependable, safety-minded, mechanically capable, and willing to work as part of a team.
Because our projects are located throughout the country, where you live is less important than your experience, dependability, and willingness to travel.

  • Overtime opportunities
  • Travel/per diem opportunities as applicable
