OMR Consulting Services
Question:
What is the one thing all shortlines, dinner trains, tourist railroads and
railroad museums have in common?
Answer: They all have Steel
Wheels!
Question:
Are you having problems getting your Steel
Wheels to generate enough revenue for your business or organization?
Answer:
If the answer is YES then OMR Consulting can
be of assistance.

On a recent business trip we visited four
separate rail related operations. All four were in the same geographic area
and had very similar demographics. Two of the operations were thriving and
boasted good revenues, maintained equipment and have shown an increase in
their revenues even in a tough economic climate. The other two operations
were struggling to keep the lights on, had equipment in disrepair and really
had doubts they would survive much longer. After thinking over the
differences between the successful and the not so successful operations we
realized that the not so successful operations needed some sound business
advice. As many of us know the business practices applied to railroads are
literally a science. And practices normally applied to non rail entities do
not always merge well when applied to anything that is equipped with steel
wheels.

One thing that often discourages small
operations from seeking help is the cost. OMR's founder originally got into
the railroad industry by being actively involved with a non profit
organization, so we fully understand the financial limitations of many
businesses and organizations. With this in mind we only charge $45.00 per
hour for our consulting services. Clients are billed by the hour with no
hidden fees or charges. If we are required to travel to your facility we
will quote you a daily charge plus reasonable travel expenses. We will even
consider exchanging rolling stock for our services.
Some of our areas of expertise include and
are not limited to:
- Equipment Maintenance
- Marketing and Sales
- Employee/Volunteer Utilization
- Business Plans & Practices
- Electronic Technology
- Buildings & Grounds
- Train Operations
- Historic Exhibits & Displays
- Equipment Restoration

With over 20 plus years experience in the
railroad industry we feel confident that the services of OMR Consulting can
be of great benefit to those not so successful and even successful
operations. For more information please contact our office at 417-336-2401
