Standard HiRail brings Standard Auto Works spring and suspension experience to new truck preparation, working vehicle repair and supported equipment installations.
Standard has helped prepare more than 60 brand new HiRail trucks for Canada’s two major national rail carriers. Our contribution has been spring and suspension preparation before service body and railgear installation, with repair and upgrade work continuing as vehicles enter service.
Inside Standard. HiRail and eligible railway road vehicles come through the same shop.
The Standard foundation
Start with the systems that carry and control the truck.
Standard Auto Spring Works built its reputation around leaf springs, spring packs, U bolts and related suspension work. Standard HiRail applies that practical focus to railway service vehicles while keeping railgear specialist work clearly separate.
Vehicle condition before assumptions
Measurements before spring fitment
Findings before added work
Clear referral when work falls outside scope
How we want the work to feel
Easy to begin. Careful underneath.
01
Listen to the concern
The driver or fleet contact knows what changed. That information shapes the first check.
02
Confirm the unit
Vehicle size, configuration, installed equipment and access matter before the booking is accepted.
03
Explain the finding
We separate the visible symptom, the measured condition and the repair option.
04
Respect the boundary
Specialist railgear work is identified and referred instead of being presented as an in house certification.
One Standard family
The right division for the work.
Standard HiRail focuses on supported railway service vehicles. Standard Spring covers dedicated spring and suspension enquiries, while Standard Repair supports broader passenger and light vehicle repair.
The Winnipeg shop. A familiar service stop for railway company vehicles.
