Pandrol USA LP said Wednesday it has been awarded a $10 million contract to supply captive fastenings for the concrete tie to wood tie changeout on the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority’s Old Colony Lines. Pandrol landed the contract through Montreal-based Stella-Jones Inc., which is supplying the pre-plated wood ties.
Delivery of the 375,000 cast plates with PANDROL FASTCLIP rail fastenings attached is expected to be completed by the end of this year.
MBTA’s Old Colony Lines include three regional rail branches running from Boston, and include the Middleborough/Lakeville Line, Plymouth/Kingston Line, and the Greenbush Line.
Bridgeport, N.J.-based Pandrol USA is a subsidiary of Gennevilliers, France-based Delachaux Group’s Railtech International Group.
