Tensar and Geopier offer engineered solutions that are proven to predictably and cost-effectively lower up-front construction and maintenance costs of rail tracks. Tensar uses InterAx® geogrid technology to reduce the required trackbed thickness and speed construction, saving up to $30,000 per linear mile of track. Geogrid stabilized sub-ballast and ballast layers have been proven to extend the period between maintenance operations by a factor of three to five times. Track subgrade maintenance problems caused by soft and wet soils can be mitigated without removing track, ties, or ballast with GeoSpike® ground improvement system by Geopier®. This turn-key system creates rigid load transfer elements that bypass weak subgrade soils that can be installed without lengthy track closures. It provides high stiffness and superior levels of performance to increase the railroad track subgrade modulus and decrease permanent track settlements. Visit both #606 to learn more.

Pintsch North America Inc.
Railroad Signaling built around axle counting. The Pintsch (Tiefenbach) wheel sensors have been in service with all the Class 1 Railroads for over 25 years and our parent company has been operating all of the world for over 180 years. Our applications include Grade Crossing Protection, AEI Readers, Hump Classification yards automation, Red Light Overrun Detection, Switch Protection, Shunt Enhancer, Annunciator Automation, Trap Circuits, Interlocking Systems, and the Next Problem that you have that you cannot solve with a traditional track circuit. Our sensors can overlay existing circuits with no interference or in conjunction with. For example, our systems can be used as an Island replacement on existing crossing protections where the Island will not hold up due to a contaminated crossing. We build systems for the simplest crossings to the most complex of crossing configurations. Add our new SPK10 gate mechanism to your system and you have a complete crossing system that is reliable with minimal maintenance. We provide vital switch protection in a small din rail configuration which in combination with our switch machine from Wolber with provide you with a reliable switch operation and protection like no other. We also offer a line of Signals for many applications. Pintsch North America offers Signal Design applications around axle counting. If you have a problem and need a solution, just ask. If you have a need for an application that is not offered by anyone, just ask. If you have a complex track layout that you are trying to protect or need indication of train presence, just ask. We custom design systems around your needs.
