When an emergency happens, our team is quick to respond đ¤ď¸
At SLM Rail Services, large-scale derailments in high-traffic or populated areas especially near one of our scrap yards are rare but critical events that demand immediate, expert response.
As widely shared online, our team was proud to assist in the cleanup and recovery of a multi-car (13) train derailment that occurred on March 30th carrying over into today east of Glendale in St.Catharines.
Mobilizing multiple specialized rail assets and a highly trained emergency response team, we worked through the night with precision, patience, and a strong commitment to safety and getting things back on track.
Through professionally coordinated effort and problem-solving expertise, we were able to help restore operations efficiently and effectively.
It was an honour to demonstrate the capabilities we bring daily to rail operations across Ontario and beyondâespecially while supporting our local communities when it matters most.
