Position Summary

The Traveling Railcar Repairman / Carman is responsible for inspecting, maintaining, and repairing railcars in accordance with customer requirements, company procedures, and AAR standards. This role requires travel, strong mechanical ability, welding experience, and a commitment to safe, quality work.

In this role, you will:

  • Inspect railcars for damage, wear, safety concerns, and serviceability
  • Perform railcar repairs, maintenance, welding, and required documentation
  • Lubricate components, apply required stenciling, and assist with railcar preparation
  • Operate company vehicles and equipment as needed
  • Maintain a clean work area and follow all safety procedures

Qualifications

Qualified candidates will have:

  • Ability to travel and work outdoors in all weather conditions
  • Strong mechanical aptitude and safe tool/equipment use
  • Valid driver's license required
  • Dependable, safety-focused, and able to work as a self-starter
