AmeraMex International, Inc. announced that it has received an $1.2 million equipment order from the US Military. This order brings year-to-date sales to $13.7 million. The order consists of a new rail tamper and ballast regulator that is shipping to a military installation in California.

The new equipment is expected to ship to the customer in mid-August 2022. Railroad tampers are another type of maintenance equipment that have greatly improved the efficiency and speed in maintaining the track and right-of-way. As their name implies, railroad tampers use hydraulic jacks to "tamp" the ballast, which levels the stone around the ties as well as works it underneath the ties for proper support.
