Avalon Rail Staff

With nearly a century of experience, Avalon Rail staff has been involved in the remanufacture, restoration and preservation of passenger railcars longer than any other staff around. Working collectively for many years, we have developed a team approach that makes us experts at research and design for any type of project.

June Garland

President

It is wonderful to be a part of a business that is challenging in its varied work. Being able to control our product from a quality standpoint is critical. With the exception of a few areas like air brake, wheel, magnaflux testing and asbestos abatement, we handle every aspect of passenger railcar repairs, maintenance and manufacturing. Our cohesive approach demonstrates to our clients the dedication and commitment we have in this industry.
