able programs designed for clients with 10 to over 8000
vehicles on one or more than 200 locations, FleetServe
was able to service the majority of customers throughout
the southern United States.
During the late 1990s, FleetServe began offering its
expertise to the oil and gas industry, and the growth in
heavy equipment servicing at oil and gas well sites began
to surpass its fleet-maintenance division, soon becoming
the company’s core business. Today, FleetServe still ser-
vices some of the country’s largest and most well-known
oil and natural gas providers. Finally, two years ago, Fleet-
Serve acquired a small locomotive service and repair
company, which it absorbed into its corporate structure
to become FleetServe Rail - an on-site and on-demand
maintenance and repair service for locomotives.
FleetServe Rail builds customized programs for each of
its clients in order to ensure that their locomotives re-
main Federal Railroad Administration (FRA)-compliant,
and running at maximum efficiency. The majority of the
issues with locomotives are related to old, faulty electri-
cal equipment and wiring. FleetServe Rail has highly ex-
perienced locomotive mechanics, electricians, and engi-
neers who diagnose and repair any and all locomotive
electrical problems. The company’s professionals are
also capable of installing AESS (smart start), BOA (anti-
wheel slip), PTC (positive train control), remote controls,
