Capital Railroad Contracting Plans Park Hills, Missouri, Operations

08/14/2023
Capital Railroad Contracting, a railroad construction company, will establish operations in Park Hills, Missouri. The $2 million project is expected to create 45 jobs.

The investment includes the construction of a more than 5,000-square-foot facility for the company’s eastern region operations.

“Capital Railroad Contracting is excited to bring our Eastern Division operations to Park Hills,” said Aaron Vollrath, President of Capital Railroad Contracting. “This area has long been a source of quality team members as well as trusted partners and clients. The location will allow growth for the company’s operations in the area. The rail service to the property brings a unique opportunity to the area that we have already begun to develop. We are excited to engage with the community and facilitate growth in the area.”

For this expansion, Capital Railroad Contracting will benefit from the Missouri Works Program, a tool that helps companies expand and retain workers by providing access to capital through withholdings or tax credits for job creation.

“Capital Railroad Contracting’s expansion is an exciting development for Park Hills and our state’s growing transportation and logistics industry,” noted Michelle Hataway, Acting Director of the Department of Economic Development. “This is another example of a quality employer benefitting a key industry while helping Missourians prosper. We appreciate our partners who supported this project and helped bring new possibilities to another Missouri community.”

Capital Railroad Contracting specializes in projects involving railroad bridges, track construction, rail installation, crossings, and more.
