Our Story

Tram HistoryTRAM Construction is a family owned and operated railroad contracting company.

TRAM provides track services and railroad materials for the private and public sectors. Headquartered in Garrison, Kentucky, TRAM has served clients throughout the Midwest and Southeast regions of the United States for over thirty years.

Owner Terry LeMaster’s introduction to the railroad construction business began with Chessie System where he worked as a camp car cook. His career progressed and it was during his time working as a foreman that he saw a need to provide local industries with track repairs and maintenance. He did so on nights and weekends and quickly developed a reputation for providing quality work.

TRAM’s commitment, experience, and integrity are a central part of all projects we deliver, and honesty is the cornerstone of our success.

In 1983, Terry was awarded a contract from Mead Paper Company, and the dream of owning his own business became a reality. Today, TRAM’s commitment, experience, and integrity are a central part of all projects we deliver, and honesty is the cornerstone of our success.
