Scrapworks Industrial
Railcar & Locomotive Recycling
Scrapworks Industrial sits inside Ironhorse Terminal on a dedicated spur — cleaning and HAZMAT handled at the terminal, dismantling and material recovery on our site. Railcars and locomotives, no size restrictions.
The integrated operation

Ironhorse handles cleaning and HAZMAT decontamination before cars roll to our spur. We process cars that are clean and ready.
In-yard dismantling and material separation
Heavy shear capabilities on-site. Ferrous and non-ferrous streams separated. Mill-grade output.
