Railway Plant Services (RPS) is a family-owned company built on a foundation of experience and a commitment to quality service. Founded in 2008 by Kieran Fegan and Chris Feeney, RPS has grown from a two-machine operation to a leading provider of rail plant and equipment in Northern Ireland. Fegan and Feeney, with a combined decade of experience in the railway industry across England and Ireland, saw a gap in the market for a reliable plant and labour supplier specifically for Northern Ireland's rail infrastructure projects. They started RPS with a small fleet that steadily expanded alongside the company's success. In 2018, RPS made a strategic shift, focusing its operations on the rental of Road-Rail Vehicles (RRVs) with fully trained operators. This move allowed them to diversify their services by adding new RRV MEWPs (Mobile Elevating Work Platforms) and a unique RRV Land Rover to their fleet. Today, RPS boasts an impressive range of equipment, including over 30 RRVs, a large fleet of rail trailers, and specialized tools like Tin Bin vacuum systems. Their in-house team of technicians meticulously maintains their entire fleet, ensuring everything meets the latest railway standards. Looking to the future, RPS recently added two new RRV Komatsu 160s to their line-up, further solidifying their commitment to providing top-of-the-line equipment. Beyond RRVs, they offer low loader transport and Hiab services, making them a one-stop shop for all your on-track plant needs. If your company is tendering for contracts in Northern Ireland and requires reliable rail plant and equipment, look no further than Railway Plant Services.
