Edwards and Kelcey has been providing freight rail planning and engineering services to the freight industry for over four decades. During that time, the dynamic changes within the rail industry due to deregulation, technology advancements in equipment, and the increased competitiveness brought about by rail mergers have produced opportunities for EK professionals to provide freight rail clients with both practical and innovative solutions to a broad spectrum of challenges.

EK staff includes former Class One railroad employees with firsthand knowledge of the freight rail industry. Their depth of understanding combined with EK's experience in the intermodal aspects of goods movement, including port and highway interfaces, makes us uniquely qualified to assist our clients with their project delivery.
