Train Parts

Craft Fibreglass brings over 40 years of industry knowledge to the design and manufacturing of custom and replacement train GRP components. We are a trusted supplier to many of Australia’s regional and metropolitan rail services.

We manufacture and supply train parts for a broad selection of rail models, including:

• Tangara trains – Electric suburban trains requiring consistent interior refurbishment support.
• Endeavour and Xplorer trains – Diesel-powered regional trains where light, corrosion-resistant materials improve longevity & fuel efficiency.
• Hunter railcars – A modern fleet that benefits from precision-fitted interior and external GRP parts.
• OSCAR (Outer Suburban Carriages) – Double-decker trains with complex body structures and curved fittings.
• Millennium trains – Advanced trains featuring fire-resistant interiors, requiring highly engineered replacement solutions.
• UGL Evo locomotives (C44 / PN50)– Freight locomotives with demanding exterior & interior component needs and rugged durability requirements.

These trains form a significant portion of the passenger and freight rail networks across New South Wales and beyond. Our train parts support long-term operational efficiency and reliable fleet maintenance.

We design and fabricate a wide variety of interior and exterior train parts that are precision built. Our GRP solutions meet the high standards required for rolling stock operation in diverse conditions.

Interior Train Components

Our interior train components are fire retardant, lightweight, easy to maintain and compliant with transport safety codes. These include:

• Ceiling panels – Lightweight and fire-retardant, designed for easy installation and concealment of overhead wiring or lighting.
• Wall claddings and trims – Providing sleek, uniform finishes with excellent resistance to scratches and scuffs.
• Seat lining, shells and armrests – Ergonomically moulded with smooth finishes and high-impact durability.
• Window surrounds – Framed precisely for passenger safety and consistent design.
• Driver cab components – Including console panels, dashboard covers, desto panels and internal shrouds that support cab control ergonomics.

Exterior Train Parts

Our exterior parts are exposed to challenging environments and built to endure long-term service with minimal wear. Examples include:

• Nose cones, side skirts and fairings – Custom-formed FRP panels that maintain aerodynamic performance and vehicle protection.
• Underframe panels and housings – Shielding equipment beneath the carriage from debris, water, and vibration.
• Access covers and utility panels – Secure and impact-resistant, with smooth or textured finishes.
• Front masks and façade panels – Matching original bodywork and preserving the visual consistency of the fleet.

We tailor each part to exact specifications, ensuring the correct mounting, function and integration into your existing train design.

Craft Fibreglass is a preferred partner for train maintenance and refurbishment projects throughout the country. Our products are used across multiple fleets due to our strong quality assurance, precise fit, and proven performance.

We’ve proudly contributed to the maintenance and improvement of fleets including:

• Tangara trains – Operating since the late 1980s, these Sydney suburban EMUs require continuous interior refurbishments.
• Xplorer/Endeavour – Regional diesel railcars servicing New South Wales, where lightweight and eaisly repairable / repairable parts are critical.
• Hunter DMUs – A relatively newer fleet that benefits from exact-match part supply for streamlined maintenance.
• OSCAR/Millennium trains – High-capacity EMUs used in both suburban and intercity services, requiring durable internal fittings.
• UGL locomotives – Rugged freight locomotives that operate in remote, harsh conditions and demand heavy-duty FRP housings.

We understand the design and performance standards required by rail authorities and contractors and build our train parts to exceed those expectations.

At Craft Fibreglass, we operate advanced local manufacturing facilities with the capabilities to produce FRP components at both small and large scales.

• 3D Design – CAD design and finite element analysis (FEA) for part optimisation, prototyping and manufacturing.
• Tooling and Moulding – Precision mould-making to ensure dimensional accuracy and fast turnaround times.
• Composite Lay-Up and Finishing – Multi-layer composite construction using quality fibres and resins, resulting in strong and lightweight parts.
• Colour Matching and Finishing – Available in smooth gel coat or prepared for painting with exact RAL colour matches.
• Quality Control – Every component is tested for strength, consistency, and dimensional tolerances before dispatch.
• Fire and Transport Compliance – We use fire rated, transport-approved materials that meet Australian rail safety guidelines.

These in-house capabilities allow us to control production quality, optimise lead times and customise each part to the client’s requirements.
