About RailWatch

Founded in 2008, RailWatch provides car hire receivables accounting and auditing services for owners of railcars.The confusion of managing your own railcars

Born out of a need of today's railcar owners for accurate accounting of their equipment, thorough research of all issues that arise with their equipment and diligent pursuit of all open accounts. No company in the industry today performs these tasks at this level. Most rely on automated processes to handle large volumes of equipment with a minimum of resources. Although this increases our competitor’s profits, their clients, the railcar owners, are not realizing the full potential of their equipment.

The philosophy of RailWatch is to use automation as a tool rather than a business principle.

We free up our human resources so that they may interact with our clients and railroad resources to maximize the profits of our railcar owners.
