UCW

Union Carriage and Wagon (UCW) was established in the 1950s to serve the South African rolling stock market in both passenger and freight sectors, and built the prestigious Blue Train in 1972. Murray & Roberts acquired ownership of the company through its acquisition of Standard Engineering in the early 1990s.

UCW provides innovative rail transport solutions to South Africa and key export markets. The company builds on many years of experience, with over 13,000 vehicles produced on an open tender system, making it one of the most competitive and largest manufacturers of railway stock in the world.
