In 1973, Richard J. “Rick” Corman began his career in railroad construction with a backhoe, a dump truck and a tenacious spirit. Driven first by his remarkable operator skills and then by his commitment to safe and reliable service, Rick’s goal was to become one of the nation’s leading railroad service providers. For the next 40 years he worked to establish the railroad service company that is now known as R. J. Corman. Today, R. J. Corman Railroad Group is headquartered in Rick’s hometown of Nicholasville, Kentucky, and has field locations in 23 states. The company serves all seven Class I railroads, many regional and short line railroads as well as various rail-served industries. These operations encompass an array of services, including: railroad construction, short line railroad operations, dispatch, industrial switching services, emergency response, track material logistics, distribution centers, signal design and construction, and an excursion dinner train. The company’s diversity has given them the ability to service all aspects of the freight railroad industry at any scale.
