Curry Rail Services Opens New Facility in DeGol Center

Curry Rail Services (CRS), a sister company to Curry Supply, has begun producing its quality products in its new Blair County facility.

CRS entered into a lease of a 50,000-square-foot space in the DeGol Industrial Center in Hollidaysburg, Blair County. The facility was opened by the Pennsylvania Railroad in 1956 as the Sam Rea Shops; this Hollidaysburg Car Shop was the largest car repair facility of Conrail. Over the years, Hollidaysburg produced thousands of new and rebuilt cars for Conrail.

CRS has relocated their railroad activities and invested in excess of $2.4 million at the new site and has also committed to creating at least 50 new jobs and retaining 144 positions over the next three years.

“Curry Supply has been experiencing incredible growth,” said Mark Ritchey, Curry Supply Principal Partner. “Expanding our manufacturing operations into the DeGol Industrial Center gives us the room we need to increase our capacity and better serve our target markets.”

Throughout the past eight decades and three generations of owners, Curry Supply has evolved into a multi-company operation. Curry Supply has been supplying the railroad industry with service for more than 20 years. From starting out supplying hoses and fittings, to completing minor repair and then transitioning to in-house manufacturing, Curry Supply has evolved into an industry leader.

The unparalleled dedication of its employees has prompted the incorporation of Curry Rail Services. Located in the heart of Central PA in a community with roots dug deep into the railroad industry, CRS respects and takes pride in supplying products and services to the railroad industry every day.
