Following this acquisition, PSC’s second since recapitalizing with TJC and following the Delta Petroleum acquisition completed in 2024, the company’s combined railcar repair, cleaning, and inspection business will span 40 states and provide on-site mini-shop repair service to 35 different facilities and will operate a network of 25 mobile repair hubs with more than 100 mobile repair trucks.
According to Houston, Texas-based PSC, which also owns and operates a network of transloading and advanced recycling infrastructure to support critical chemical manufacturers in North America, the company’s repair offerings include tank car and service equipment qualification, lining and coating repair, railcar cleaning, railroad repair agents, inspection services, and freight car running repairs. PSC’s Railcar Repair Headquarters will be housed at its Bayport Rail Terminal in close proximity to the Houston Ship Channel where the executive leadership team, Customer Service Excellence Center, and Troubleshooting departments will be located. PSC was founded in 1952 with more than 5,500 employees
“We are excited to welcome these operations and employees to the PSC Family,” said PSC CEO Joel Dickerson. “The breadth and depth of leadership expertise, strong reputation for excellent customer service, and expanded geographic reach coming with this acquisition will enable us to more effectively and efficiently serve our customers’ growing repair, cleaning, and inspection needs.”
“With the acquisition of Rescar, we are not only bringing on great employees and expanding our footprint—we’re unlocking a new chapter of innovation, growth, and opportunity. We are poised to amplify the value we can create for customers and redefine what’s possible in our industry,” said PSC SVP Operations John Kennedy.
“I am extremely pleased to have worked with PSC and its exceptional leadership across the country, both in the field and at the corporate level. PSC is the ideal successor for this business and will be strong stewards of its customer relationships, employees, and the broader Rescar legacy,” added Rescar CEO Joe Schieszler.
