About

Rail welding specialists since 2013

Fast Track Welding started in 2013 with two crews working in Victoria. Today the company runs more than twelve specialist teams and works across the country.

The business has focused on one thing: welding rail. That focus has built depth of quality, training and service this work needs. We don't merely offer welding as an additional service among many.

Why Fast Track

What the specialisation buys you

Specialisation
Rail welding is the whole business, not another line item beside general fabrication.

Trained and qualified welders, with training as a standing commitment rather than a project cost.
Quality
Weld quality is the deliverable, and it is the reason clients return across multiple projects.
Safety
Work is planned and executed to suit live rail environments, possessions and third-party site requirements.
Plant & equipment
Modern specialised welding plant, maintained and matched to the rail class being worked.
Response
Crews mobilise quickly, including for defect response and short-notice possession work.
Coverage
Nationwide capability, delivered by teams working out of Victoria and on site around the country.
