Mike Williams formed Railroad Materials Salvage, Inc. in 1984 based in Richmond, Missouri. Mike has over 30 years experience in the railroad industry, and is still involved with RMSI sales and management operations. His experience and reputation in the industry allows Railroad Materials Salvage, Inc. to work closely with Class I railroads such as BNSF Railway, Canadian National Railway, Union Pacific Railroad, and Kansas City Southern on both service projects and asset disposition projects.
