Railroad track infrastructure and ballast installation

Rail Infrastructure

Track ballast is a precision material. AREMA gradation, LA abrasion performance, and source documentation are non-negotiable for Class 1 railroad, short-line, and industrial spur projects. Mettle Materials supplies AREMA-grade granite ballast with the testing records and source certification your rail program requires — and can deliver by rail car for direct track-side placement.
