Rail Transportation

Rail Transportation relies on conductors, locomotive engineers, dispatchers, car inspectors, and maintenance-of-way crews to move passengers or freight safely. Their day can span long mainline networks or short local rail lines, with work split between locomotives, rolling stock, yards, terminals, and fixed facilities. Serving U.S. businesses since 2011, Zoro helps rail shops and field crews source everyday supplies from 14+ million products. Buyers often need PPE, high-visibility apparel, flashlights, batteries, lubricants, absorbents, hand tools, hydraulic fittings, fasteners, electrical test instruments, lockout/tagout devices, and replacement hardware for rolling stock and facility maintenance. Rail operations and maintenance also call for attention to FRA rules and OSHA requirements, especially in repair shops, fueling areas, and trackside work zones. Zoro fits into Rail Transportation purchasing by helping crews keep locomotives, railcars, and support facilities ready for daily service.
