Used when appropriate, our Railspan® steel deck flatcars offer excellent and cost effective bridge solutions at affordable prices to a wide variety of organizations. Skip Gibbs Company has supplied Railspan® modules for a wide variety of bridge structures and has more than 1,400 Railspan® flatcars in successful bridge use at this time. This firm has been in business since 1983 and is the world leader in providing quality Railspan® bridge solutions to a wide cross-section of clientele at affordable prices.
Railspan® flatcars are available in quantity for the first time in several years. We generally stock upwards of 100 flatcar modules prepared for fabrication. Railspan® flatcar modules are also normally available without modification for purchase in quantity.
Customers purchasing a Railspan® bridge will receive a product of the highest quality, usually completed with fabricated railings, and always coated with a complimentary enamel paint job on the newly fabricated steel surfaces, railings and exposed sidesills. Should the project requirements so specify, Skip Gibbs Company, Inc. can abrasive grit-blast the entire structure to bare metal, and re-coat it with technologically advanced moisture-cure urethanes.
We've found no project to be too small, or too large, and are quite flexible in meeting the customer's requirements for aesthetically designed bridge railings and colors.
Make no mistake when specifying your bridge products, there is only one Railspan®! (see or_equal.pdf)
