About the company
East Penn Railway East Penn Railroad, LLC Division operates as a sub-recipient on federal rail-infrastructure grants, receiving the bulk of its recent federal activity (five of six awards, 83% of the award count) through the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation as the prime grantee on Federal Highway Administration and Federal Railroad Administration programs. The company is structured as a limited liability partnership organized in Pennsylvania with headquarters in Kennett Square, Pennsylvania, and competes exclusively under federal grant mechanisms rather than federal contracts.
East Penn Railroad holds a single prime federal grant award: a $4.587 million Project Grant from the Federal Railroad Administration, dated December 1, 2025, for the Regional Rail's Eastern Pennsylvania Rail Capacity Project, carrying performance activities throughout the United States and an ultimate completion date of October 31, 2028. The grant funds rail infrastructure improvements and capacity enhancements, including typical capital work such as track upgrades, signal system enhancements, bridge repairs, and operational capacity and safety investments across a three-year implementation period.
The company's sub-recipient footprint on Pennsylvania Department of Transportation grants spans railroad warning device and grade-crossing safety work. Five sub-awards document rail-highway grade crossing improvements and warning device installations at named locations in Chester and Delaware counties, Pennsylvania: the Rail Highway Grade Crossing projects at Crowl Toot Road and Lake Road East (Chester County, both awarded October 22, 2025), and the Install RR Warning Devices projects at Jansen Avenue (Delaware County, July 23, 2024), Center Street (Chester County, May 31, 2023), and Pine Street/Church Street (Chester County, May 31, 2023). All five sub-awards flow from PennDOT as the prime recipient of Federal Highway Administration grant funding.
Customer concentration is non-negotiable: 100% of recent awards come from the Department of Transportation, split between the Federal Railroad Administration (one award) and the Federal Highway Administration (five awards). Activity has been episodic — two awards in 2023, one in 2024, and three in 2025 — for a combined obligated amount of $5.5 million across the footprint. East Penn Railroad does not sit on federal contract vehicles, GWACs, or BPAs, and does not hold prime federal contract awards. The company's federal presence is confined to grant-funded regional rail and grade-crossing safety infrastructure work in Eastern Pennsylvania and the broader Mid-Atlantic region.
