Our General Superintendent is Yvon Emard. Our locomotive repair shop is located in Laval, Quebec. Our crews are experienced in making monthly, semi-monthly and annual inspections with national and major accounts in Canada and in the United States.

The intention of such inspections is to catch potential breakdowns in their early stages. They are particularly worth-while to industries having only one locomotive being worked around the clock and thus allowing little opportunity to properly maintain it. Inspection programs also prove essential to industries lacking staff appropriately experienced in this specialized field.

  Merrilees will be pleased to send you details on the content of these programs and a list of items covered in our monthly or other periodic inspection and maintenance service contracts.

Should any of your locomotives or other power units require work, we would be delighted to supply quotations on repairs and parts. Our large inventory of new, OK, reusable and rebuilt parts for many types and makes puts an unusually convenient source of problem-solving at your disposal. Merrilees is in business to provide safety to your staff and to prevent the loss of production and service through unexpected down-time.

To save on expensive down-time, our experts can get to your location surprisingly quickly to provide repairs to worn or broken motive power and rolling stock. Generally this work consists of changing major parts, e.g. diesel engines, complete trucks, traction motors, and compressors. Such items as brake shoes, filters, etc. are typical of field maintenance work as are wheel truing of brake shoes.

Besides offering emergency repair service on your equipment, we can provide very worthwhile monthly, quarterly or yearly inspections to help prevent breakdowns.
