Parts and Component Design and Manufacturing

Our Durango and Silverton Railroad shops are equipped with the knowledge and tooling to help you with your steam locomotive and rolling stock part needs. 

We have a wide variety of capabilities to design, construct, and repair most anything on a steam locomotive or historic passenger car. In the maintenance of our own equipment we are regularly constructing and building hard to find, obsolete parts; often we keep pieces on the shelf and ready to go. Whether you need one, or a bunch, we are ready to discuss your needs.
