VIEW ALL PROJECTSProject Scope
The Siemens Mobility Advanced Manufacturing Campus represents a landmark investment in U.S. rail infrastructure and a complex, large-scale construction achievement. Spanning 200 acres, the campus was developed to support next-generation rail manufacturing and includes ten primary buildings totaling approximately 500,000 square feet of space dedicated to heavy manufacturing, warehousing and Class A administrative offices. The facility integrates advanced production capabilities with critical transportation infrastructure, positioning Siemens Mobility to efficiently serve the growing demand for passenger rail vehicles across North America.
A defining feature of the project is its extensive rail infrastructure, which includes approximately 12,000 linear feet of railroad track and a direct connection to the adjacent Norfolk Southern rail line via the constructed rail bridge. This connectivity enables seamless inbound and outbound logistics, allowing railcars to move efficiently between manufacturing, assembly, maintenance and national distribution networks. The campus also incorporates specialized elements such as railcar maintenance pits, a railroad bridge and four heavy-duty cranes, all designed to support the assembly and servicing of large-scale rail equipment.\
Site development presented significant engineering and logistical challenges. The 200-acre site featured a dramatic 100-foot elevation change, requiring extensive grading and earthwork operations. Approximately 1.4 million cubic yards of soil were moved to establish stable building pads, rail alignments and roadway systems. The resulting site design accommodates a fully integrated network of streets, drives and parking areas, along with both asphalt and concrete paving tailored to heavy industrial use.
Beyond vertical construction, the project included the installation of comprehensive infrastructure systems essential to a modern manufacturing campus. These systems include site-wide electrical distribution, natural gas service, force mains, stormwater management and advanced communications networks. Building automation systems (BAS) were implemented to optimize operational efficiency, while site lighting, loading docks and security features, including perimeter fencing andcontrolled access systems, ensure safe and secure operations.
The Siemens Mobility campus exemplifies coordination across multiple disciplines, blending civil, structural, mechanical, electrical and rail system expertise into a cohesive and highly functional environment. The integration of manufacturing facilities with dedicated rail infrastructure required precise planning and sequencing to align building construction with track installation and utility placement.
