About McCulloch Group
McCulloch Group has one purpose – to create the world’s most innovative rail infrastructure solutions. We design and create machines that make the railways safer, generate time and cost efficiencies, and now – with the launch of our first entirely electric product – make the railways greener.
We have a rich history born out of curiosity and searching for a better way of doing things; our services and products are made for rail people, by rail people.
