Supporting the Heritage Rail Industry with Safe Access Platform Solutions

13th May 2025

We are proud to be a trusted supplier to the UK’s vibrant heritage rail sector, providing industry-leading access solutions designed to ensure the highest standards of safety when working on locomotives and rolling stock.

With decades of combined experience and a deep appreciation for the unique demands of the heritage rail industry, our bespoke platforms and engineered safety systems are tailored to meet the specific requirements of steam and vintage diesel locomotives. From careful access around chimney stacks and boiler fittings to safe maintenance access over curved footplates and fragile surfaces, our platforms provide stable, secure, and efficient working environments for engineers and restoration teams.

Our clients include preserved railways, restoration workshops, and rail museums across the country, all of whom rely on us to help maintain safety and efficiency during inspection, maintenance, and refurbishment tasks. Whether it’s accessing hard-to-reach components at height or ensuring compliance with modern safety regulations on century-old machines, we deliver innovative, compliant, and robust solutions.

So yes we are proud to play our part in preserving Britain’s rail heritage and keeping the past alive, while keeping people safe.
