ABOUT US
Our goal is to carry out all of the processes that are required to continually provide all clients with sufficient availability of railbound vehicles.

Shunter is the market leader in the Netherlands for planned maintenance, repair and overhaul of freight locomotives and -wagons, both in her own workshop and on location. A team of more than 120 employees in Rotterdam with broad specialist knowledge and extensive experience is available each day to guarantee a very high level of quality and service to customers who find this to be just as important as Shunter.
The organisation is set up based on efficient and effective business processes in which continuous improvement forms the second primary process.
