Illinois Railway Equipment Co. was founded. It was formed as a mechanical engineering firm based in Chicago, IL. The foremost goal was to deliver engineered solutions for common issues plaguing the railcar operation.
Illinois Railway Equipment Company was rebranded as IRECO, LLC. Our focus remains the same to this day.
IRECO receives the first TTX Supplier Award recognizing quality, cost, delivery, service, finance and administration. We have received the award 23 consecutive years since then.
IRECO joined the Railway Supply Group family. IRECO combines the same industry knowledge, continuous improvement initiatives and innovative engineering concepts that allowed us to be a pioneer in freight car specialty products for over 85 years.
IRECO continues to be a premier engineered railway products company providing freight car components for railcar manufacturers, railroads and repair shops throughout North America.
