Tikehau Star Infra (“TSI”) has been an active owner of Guardian Rail since its initial investment in September 2020 and has increased its capital investment to support Guardian Rail’s growth over time. Currently, Guardian Rail provides services across three operating segments (Repair Facilities, Field Services, and Rail Services), managing a nationwide network of service locations with 800+ employees.
