Cathcart Rail Unveils Bold New Identity as Guardian Rail: New Name and Logo Reinforce Commitment to Quality, Integrity, and Trust
October 27, 2025 — Cathcart Rail, a leading provider of freight rail services across North America, proudly announces its transition to a new name and identity: Guardian Rail. This rebrand reflects the company’s sharpened focus on safety, consistency, and operational excellence, while setting the tone for a new chapter of growth, clarity, and purpose.
“We’re doing more than changing our name. We’re making a commitment to what matters most – our clients and our team members. We’re promising to safeguard our customers’ time and assets, business continuity, transparency, and peace of mind,” said Scott Driggers, Guardian
Rail CEO. “Our new identity is an affirmation of these principles we intend to bring to work every day. We are committed to evolving as a company, developing our front-line team and putting the voice of the customer at the center of everything we do. We’re pledging to making Guardian Rail a company that both our clients and team members are proud to be part of and trust.”
Why the Change?
The transformation to Guardian Rail marks a strategic evolution and lays a foundational roadmap for the company’s future. The company chose Guardian for its new name as a signal of protection, readiness, and reliability in a complex and dynamic industry.
The following principles drove the rebrand:
- A focus on operational excellence and integrity, along with a strong desire to hear from and be part of what is most meaningful to our customers.
- A desire to visually and verbally align with the company’s core values: safety, quality, integrity, teamwork, and accountability.
- A renewed commitment to actively listening to our customers, ensuring transparency in every interaction, and supporting our employees to ensure they have the training and the tools they need to provide best in class support.
What the Guardian Brand Represents
The Guardian Rail identity centers around a newly designed logomark: the letter “G” embedded within converging railroad tracks. This striking icon reflects the company’s foundational expertise in rail while evoking forward motion, symbolically and literally representing the company’s drive to earn and maintain customers’ trust and strengthen the company’s reputation.
Moving Forward
As Guardian Rail, we aim to lead the industry with dependable solutions designed to anticipate tomorrow’s challenges. From switching and logistics to mechanical services, the rebrand reinforces a promise that customers can expect every day.
“We are proud to introduce Guardian Rail as a brand and rail services partner that stands watch over safety, quality, integrity, and every promise we make,” Scott Driggers stated.
