GRS Railcar Component Parts

American Hydraulics, Greenbrier Castings, GMO Parts, and YSD Industries are wholly owned subsidiaries of Greenbrier Rail Services and manufacture railcar component parts. We collaborate with you to provide high value solutions to your problems, through innovative engineering, quality manufacturing, and enhanced service.

Since 90% of the energy used to manufacture new products is used to process raw materials, remanufactured and refurbished products offer a significant energy savings. Reuse conserves valuable natural resources, minimizes waste, and remanufactured or reconditioned products offer significant cost savings.

The following reconditioned rail car component parts are available through Greenbrier Rail Services:
- Ball Type Angle Cocks
- Bolsters, Side Frames and Yokes
- Couplers
- Cushioning Units
- Roller Bearings
- Snubbers
- Wheelsets

Our facilities remanufacture and recondition all products according to Association of American Railroads and manufacturer specifications.

Joint-Venture

In order to ensure a steady supply of quality railcar truck castings for our manufacturing plants, Greenbrier acquired a one-third interest in a joint venture with ACF Industries and ASF-Keystone. The joint venture has leased or acquired foundries for production of freight car truck castings in Cicero, Illinois and in Alliance, Ohio. These foundries provide critical domestic production capacity not only to Greenbrier and ACF, but also to our railroad customers and other car builders during a time when reliable supply is far below required demand.
