Rail & Transit FAQs
Is this work performed in-house?
Some components are fabricated or machined in-house at our Ontario shop. Others are sourced through certified Canadian suppliers. Pearson manages quoting, fulfillment, and QC across both.
Do you meet AAR or ISO requirements?
Yes — we support AAR and ISO 9001:2015 workflows, with full traceability and inspection reports available upon request.
Can you supply complete bogie or subassemblies?
We provide access to fabrication, machining, and final assembly for bogie and undercarriage systems, including alignment and balancing where required.
